Put the odds in your favor , Protect your baby with Tummy Shield
Driving is the most dangerous thing you do everyday , but it seems like nobody wants to talk about the possible risks to your baby when you are pregnant .
“ Automobile crashes are the largest single cause of death for pregnant women and the leading cause of traumatic fetal injury mortality in the United States .” -- U . S . National Library of Medicine
The existing seat belt configuration in automobiles was never designed to provide optimum protection for the expecting woman and her baby . In fact there is nothing in the federal manufacturing / testing standards that even addresses the issue .
Depending on the stage of pregnancy , the lap portion of the seat belt can have devastating impacts on the developing baby and / or the associated maternal organs . Based on the studies we found , we estimate 3,000 pregnancies a year are lost due to car crashes .
Tummy Shield is the only pregnancy seat belt positioner engineered and crash tested to ensure the seat belt still works as intended while redirecting it away from the pregnant belly .
Tummy Shield is an “ add-on device ” that a pregnant woman puts on her vehicle seat to sit on and creates an anchor point between her legs into
which she slips the lap portion of the seat belt . This transfers the restraining points from the occupant ’ s upper pelvic bone and abdomen region to the legs and lower pelvis , thereby completely removing any negative interaction between the seat belt and the baby . Essentially it converts the lap belt into a leg harness . Tummy Shield also makes wearing the seat belt much more comfortable for those who find it uncomfortable and may otherwise not wear one at all . When the unexpected happens you ’ ll be glad you used the Tummy Shield .
