Disease description:
I'm seven months pregnant and spend every day working in front of a computer. I'm not sure if this affects the fetus. Could you please tell me what effects, if any, internet use during the seventh month of pregnancy might have on the fetus?

Dr. Zhao Xiaodong
Using the internet at seven months of pregnancy generally has little effect on the fetus. By 28 weeks, the fetus has largely developed and is no longer susceptible to malformations. Short-term internet use is usually harmless, but visiting internet cafes is not recommended due to crowded conditions and poor air quality. Prolonged internet use may lead to physical discomfort. Therefore, during pregnancy, it's best to minimize exposure to electronic devices and other sources of radiation.
