I sometimes wonder if this is okay?
 I've always got the laptop on my lap, worried I'm nuking the baby?!

its something to do with the type of frequency it radiates but its one that cant do any harm. DH is in IT but also deals with alot of random geek related stuff and he looked into it. My son seems fine and i used to sit with it on my knee for hours a day doing uni work

I did it with mine and she is completely fine. I used to sit in front of the heater too and DP used to say I was cooking the baby   
 
 If anything she gets hot easily now, where as I am always cold iygwim, might just be coincidence though

I also used it and DD is fine. Just sit it on a pillow or you can get a special pad to sit it on.
