Are you allowed to use laptops with mobile broadband (usb modem) on maternity units?

Probably not the biggest of my worries, but has anyone got any experiences of this?

As they are essentially the same as using a normal mobile then can;t see the problem, it is just a SIM in a large peice of equipment rather than a hand held size.

I have.

Good. wasn't even sure if phones were allowed on wards etc because the are usually banned in hospital. If I end up staying in for a bit, I want to be connected to the world.

Phew I don't want to be parted from my iPhone MN I mean contact with my kids for that long!
