We recommend that pregnant women use the seat belts throughout their pregnancy. Keeping the mother safe is the best way to keep the baby safe.
Pregnant women should wear the lap part of the belt across the thighs and as snug across the hips as possible.
Keep the belt low so that it does not come across the abdomen. That way the strong bones of the hips will take the force if there is a collision.
