15 Tech-Focused Maternity Innovations

Having a baby can be one of the most difficult times for a woman, however these connected maternity innovations ensure that mothers and fathers-to-be have a less trying time, and that babies are protected throughout the whole process.

Those who are concerned about EMF radiation and the impact it might have on a fetus, as well as the mother, are likely to find the RadiaShield 'Belly Armor' appealing. As the name of the product suggests, it's used by being placed over the mother's belly when she's using technology that emits radio waves, such as a tablet or a laptop.

Another useful maternity innovation is the 'Babee on Board' app, which enables mothers who are taking public transit to silently request a seat. It works by connecting to another app, called 'Babee on Board: Offer,' which allows those with it on their phones to see the request and accommodate the future mother in need.
