Pregnancy Info HOME

I have heard that a laptop on a man's lap can kill sperm - but I have no evidence to support that - I just read it somewhere. I always tell my DH to put it on a tray or table top, just in case. Not really sure about what you're asking - but I am curious so i hope someone who knows answers!

I guess, I just want to make sure that IF I am pregnant, that having the laptop on me won't hurt anything.

i was wondering the same thing about a jacuzzi....i do go in my jacuzzi a lot at my condo complex. once i'm pregnant i know i'm not suppose to stay in there long, but what about in the 2ww...what do you girls think?

Katz, a laptop on your stomach will not hurt anything whether you are PG or not. Because it doesn't get hot enough to cause your temp or your blood pressure to rise. Jessica, however, should stay out of those jacuzzi's because jacuzzi's do get extremely hot and are known to cause temp and blood pressure to rise in both an expecting mom and the unborn baby. A hot bath is not bad either b/c you can control the temperatures. So no worries katz, but stay out of those jacuzzi's jessica!! LOL

quick question krissy, I like a really hot bath, like practically no cold water turned on. Think its ok once in a while? Being stressed ttc really makes me want something to relax....

i've always wondered the same thing about the laptop, although less about the heat and more about the radiation. i know that dabonkelsme is right about it affecting a man's sperm but i don't know about women. i'd probably put it on your thighs or put a pillow under it if you're going to put it right on your tummy. take care :)

Thanks, I think I will keep it on my thighs or on a pillow.....unless AF comes because it works better then any water bottle!!
