　　Can I still use a computer during pregnancy?

　　During my pregnancy, I used the computer to work and update my blog every day. I worked in front of the computer for four to five hours or more every day. It turns out that computers do not affect the baby in the belly. However, because of using the computer, I did feel some discomfort in the later stages of pregnancy - when I woke up every morning, my fingers would be a little sore, and I needed to massage my hands to soothe the finger muscles. The doctor said that this is caused by the more active fingers on the keyboard, which increases the burden on blood circulation. If you can avoid using the computer before going to bed, this discomfort will not be so obvious.

　　The reason for using computers as little as possible during pregnancy is not the radiation problem of computers. Every electrical appliance emits radiation, and computers are certainly no exception. However, the radiation from home computers is no higher than that of ordinary household appliances, so there is no need to worry. Doctors do not recommend that pregnant women use computers for a long time because sitting in a sitting position for a long time can easily cause fatigue and aggravate swollen feet. Therefore, even if you need to use a computer for a long time, you should get up and move around every 30 to 40 minutes.
