Can you answer Shoefreak’s question about Massage?:

I just got a massage chair that you strap onto any seat and plug it in. It heats up and vibrates all over. I am five months pregnant…. Is it ok to use it???
Also, i heard somewhere there might be an electric current that’s in the chair the that can be bad for you while pregnant. Is that true?

    Massage Feedback: just to be safe don’t use one til you ask your ob/ gyn or midwife.

    Massage Feedback: Yeah, my sister in law has one and she used it with her first born and she is fine!
    The heat is one your back so it doesnt make much of a difference…
    It’d actually probably be a good stress reliever.
    :]
