    Cell phone use near babies / near their head

    I think what’s known is there are huge gaps in the research around this rather than there’s suppressed research about it. They aren’t saying oh there’s no risk bc the research indicates there is none, it is because a lot of research has yet to be done. But enough scientific bodies have raised...

    Cell phone use near babies / near their head

    @horatiok Literally responded to your questions and provided AAP letters. I would suggest looking for the answers to my questions and questioning the gaps of the research and in responses which fail to address infant exposure research is not arguing, though this flair is tagged for debate. So...

    @horatiok Also — wondering if you can speak to any of the studies EWG cites themselves rather than to EWG as the collector? Thanks

    Cell phone use near babies / near their head

    @horatiok Personally, I look at EWG as on the more stringent side regardless if I agree w their vaccination positions, but I like knowing they’re critical of everything and seeing what they’re looking at. I know a few good scientists who have come out of EWG, mostly for it being archaic in...

    @reformed I think that’s a pretty decent understanding of the situation. If we came to terms w the microplastics, and the nanoplastics, and the PFAS/PFOA, and the toxic exposures, and the water quality, and the emissions of war on the climate crisis, and the lack of parental support in public...

    @reformed For sure — some people mock me for caring about it but I know some others have the same questions and concerns!

    @reformed Idk I have been specifically looking at cell phones but they seem to be included in a lot of AAP’s communications on wireless radiation. You can download some of their letters on wireless exposure here.%2C%20the%20largest%20US,devices%20that%20emit%20wireless%20radiation)

    Cell phone use near babies / near their head

    @joinna1 Lol get yourself together. I’m not intimidated by your mockery of a scientific inquiry. I have dealt with dozens of billionaire corporations who said the same damn thing, their products were safe until they were proven otherwise. I’m not really worried about what you think, I’m asking...

    @joinna1 It’s literally the American Academy of Pediatrics fool

    Cell phone use near babies / near their head

    @dcantrell Can anyone find anything more recent from American Academy of Pediatrics or do their recommendations remain the same as 2016? Their reccs are to keep it off the body and at least one inch away from the head. They have some other family safety tips here but I’m looking for anything...

    Cell phone use near babies / near their head

    @austin900 “There is no evidence,” in this case indicates that there are large gaps in the research and it has been narrowly focused mostly around brain tumors and brain cancer, not that it can be definitively said because the research has been done. Other than that things like the...

    Cell phone use near babies / near their head

    @austin900 Yeah I would think most ppl using phone around bb are most likely holding it near their head as they’re being held and napping or eating etc which is why I feel like a wider spread adoption of best practices and precautionary measures to at least keep it X inches away from a baby’s...

    Cell phone use near babies / near their head

    @ordibaryme Personally I try to hold it away from my baby/their head and switch hands so it’s further away from them, do what I can on airplane mode and download podcasts or shows when doable.

    @mikki1 There are multiple studies raising concerns about this but it’s good to know you’re superior to the AAP AND TA

    Cell phone use near babies / near their head

    @elpocoloco Thank you for an actually scientific response regardless of whether it includes any infant exposure studies. And also, I’m not losing sleep over there being no infant exposure studies and I don’t need to be told to worry more about car accidents and falls — tf? I’m literally just...

    Cell phone use near babies / near their head

    @mikki1 Lmao what convictions?!? I’m looking for infant exposure STUDIES and so far I have a guy that no has infant exposure studies, and a guy who references FCC levels based on old ass data and 1996 cell phones. You can go on being a prick but it doesn’t change that the guidance needs updating...

    Cell phone use near babies / near their head

    @arodrewe Also I am not shaming anyone by asking if anyone has research on infant exposure, so if you feel shamed — that is seriously not about me. Literally looking for if anyone has additional research relevant to infants and so far, I’m not seeing it. Hoping some will come up! As I too, have...

    Cell phone use near babies / near their head

    @arodrewe How is asking for infant exposure research or more info relevant to specifically infant exposure, a false flair? I generally would rather err on the side of caution where I Can which is why I generally follow AAP recommendations, since I could not find any updated infant exposure...

    Cell phone use near babies / near their head

    @seekhimineverything Yes, one review of studies I read said most research is done specifically around brain tumors and cancers but that other studies about its potential affects on other functions of the brain and body are not yet done.

    @ck8sugarbaby Again, the lack of studies does not prove the absence of harm.
