Creating an EMF Free Nursery

Babies are so innocent. Their precious little bodies, perfect. Every crevice, adorable. They’ve yet to be visibly affected by the toxicity of the world, and they remind us that life is a gift, and to use our lives well.
Many mamas are growing in concern about electromagnetic fields and the effects of radiation on their little ones. And rightfully so.
Electromagnetic radiation affects human health. It’s non negotiable. It’s been proven over and over, and I see it in people’s blood.
EMFs disrupt balance in the body. They can change the chemical structure of tissues, influence metabolic pathways, contribute to neurological symptoms and more. They disturb sleep, cause headaches, increase fatigue, and have been linked to tinnitus, cancer, brain inflammation.... They can even alter the shape of your red blood cells! (I have seen this in clients.)
The most common sources of radio frequencies are, you guessed it, wireless devices.
You’ve probably heard about not having your phone on your body, standing back from the microwave (or better yet ditching it) and turning your wifi router off at night. But have you considered baby monitors?
Today, with technology increasingly taking over what humans once did, there are a scary amount of opportunities for day old babies to be exposed to harmful waves.
Mama bears want to protect their babies. That’s instinct.
Sadly, our world is broken and it’s impossible to shelter our children from everything bad. But what we CAN do is create homes that are safe, low in the toxicity department, and that mitigate the negative effects of positive modern technology.

If you’re looking to reduce your baby’s exposure, here are 6 ways to do so:
Starting in the womb, grab yourself a belly band from Lambs! While you’re pregnant, baby has amazing protection. Your body is a wonderworking glory! However, radiation can still permeate through your tissues and affect babies in utero. This is the band that I wore most days during pregnancy.
Ditch the “smart” nursery! Smart socks, monitors that touch your baby, and robot bassinets are best avoided if you are wanting to reduce your baby’s exposure to EMFs.
Phone protection is crucial. Consider a case like this for whenever your phone is on you in pregnancy (and beyond) and whenever your baby is near your phone. This case actually blocks cell reception it’s so powerful! You will not receive calls or texts in this pouch.
Add an anti-radiation blanket to your registry! Great for those times that you are nap trapped and using your phone to be productive while snuggling your sweet package.
Choose the right baby monitor! Bebcare is an innovative baby monitor company that has designed their very own technology, boasting of low to no emission! This is the monitor we are using for our home, and we are SO pleased with it. While we thought we could get away with no monitor, the reality is when you have a new bundle napping in the day and you’re doing stuff around the house, it’s really nice to know that they’re doing okay. Bebcare combines the BEST of modern technology to ease your worries about if baby is awake or not, and the BEST of healthy technology to ease your worries about radiation.

Turn your wi-fi off when you’re not using it. We don’t need wireless emissions affecting us when our body is trying to recalibrate for the next day ahead. Improve the quality of your sleep, and your life by doing this simple task. Most modern routers can be set on a timer so they’ll turn off and on at the time you choose every day without having to worry about it.
