And the short answer is: Yes.
You should always wear a seatbelt. In states like Arkansas, it's even required by law. If a police officer stops you while driving without your seatbelt on you are subject to a fine.
Most crash fatalities occur within 25 miles of home and at speeds of less than 40 mph. This could lead to fatal injuries to you and your unborn baby. That's why you should always wear a seatbelt when driving. The regular seatbelt is designed for safety, but during pregnancy, it can apply pressure to the belly, which may lead to discomfort.
Our seatbelt adjuster is designed to improve comfort during your drive. It helps reposition the lap belt away from the belly. Disclaimer: This product does not replace the vehicle's original seatbelt safety system. Always ensure your seatbelt is used according to the vehicle manufacturer's instructions.
