Children whose mothers used their mobile phones more than four times a day during pregnancy are more likely to be hyperactive, study reveals
Children whose mothers frequently spoke on their mobile phones while pregnant are more likely to be hyperactive. Youngsters aged five to seven are 28 per cent more likely to suffer if their mothers spoke on a mobile four times, or for over an hour, a day while expecting. Children whose mothers never used a mobile phone while pregnant have the lowest risk of behavioural or emotional problems.
