To all the jerks making rude comments — first off, maybe you’re part of the reason more parents don’t give a damn to be here and learn, second, tobacco companies used to say there’s no evidence of harm either so you lost me there without referencing studies on infant exposure. Third, I actually...

@lidalulu Lmao

@monteviste I am asking for more research and info relevant to cell phone use specifically near babies and their heads and trying to establish whether folks have additional info in regard to infant safety or if simply choosing not to follow AAP recommendations on this one in lieu of some higher...

@monteviste Question — Who said phones are dangerous and the studies showing otherwise are useless?

@monteviste Also that study does not address infant exposure when the skulls are thinner and was done on: A large epidemiological study of the effects of cell phones in young adults aged between 10 and 24 was completed across 14 countries in Europe (the MOBI-KIDS study). The case-controlled...

@monteviste Aside from their reccs I added in the OP edit 2, they also mention some things I find of interest on how the regulations we are under now, were created and why that’s flawed: Are there any regulations in place to limit cell phone radiation in the United States? The Federal...

@monteviste Tips for people who are interested, like parents seeking scientific guidance from a body of pediatricians, people like me. Personally, I’ve had multiple pediatricians for my child in multiple countries who haven’t mentioned a lot of things that have come up and only when I raised...

@monteviste But they still recommend limited exposure due to radiation exposure. Personally, the FDA is not as rigorous as it could be imo so I tend to look at AAP positions first as the most safe. Ok well at least we are on the same page that you’re just ignoring their recommendations lol...

@monteviste Sorry, are you ignoring their recommendations about keeping it away from the head and off the body etc? Edit — their position is also reinforcing their guidelines I copied in the post. Let me copy them for you again: How can we limit cell phone radiation for ourselves and our...

@monteviste Do you just not agree w AAP taking a precautionary position or the significant gaps in research, such as none of the studies being on infants with thinner skulls which are more vulnerable to radiation? Are you just kind of hopping over that bit? What about the fact current...

@monteviste I just linked one in an edit in the post description but you can also find numerous references by doing a quick web search for AAP position on cell phone radiation. Here is the the most recent summary I’ve found (2018) from their Healthy Children database but it’s referenced a number...

@monteviste What do you make of the American Academy of Pediatrics positions then? Obviously some studies have been enough to warrant them issuing precautions and much of the other possible effects have not been studied. It seems there are as another commenter mentioned, a lot of issues around...

Edit: For clarification I added context as I am unclear on why folks would dismiss the positions and responses of the American Academy of Pediatrics bc I usually check their guidelines and positions first. I am looking for research about this also though from my understanding AAP (edit: this...
