I have a white noise app on my smartphone that I use throughout all DS's naps and at bedtime. I've been leaving my phone in his cot with the app playing constantly. I wedge it between the cot and the mattress so it's secure, and it's only about 20cm from his head.
I randomly started wondering earlier if it's okay for a baby to be so close to a mobile phone, Googled and came across this article:

Now I'm really worried that I've exposed him to electromagnetic fields and am feeling terrible Could I have harmed him?! DS is 5.5 months.
