Car journeys

Diagram showing pregnant woman with seat belt correctly positioned with the cross strap between her breasts and the lap strap under her bump. Incorrect positions also shown. On long car journeys it is important to stop regularly for a break and to stretch your legs. Wear your seatbelt with the cross strap between your breasts and the lap strap across your pelvis under your bump, not across your bump. Road accidents are among the most common causes of injury in pregnant women. Avoid making long trips on your own and share the driving with others when possible.
