I had a chest x-ray without knowing that I was pregnant. It happened 4weeks from my last menstral period(i took my x-ray on this day). I am worried if this would effect my baby in any way, now or later in life. Is terminating the pregnancy the best option. The radiologist says it is fine as the amount of radiation is too low to cause any effect on the unborn. My GYN/OB aslo says the same. but i want to be sure b4 proceeding further with the pregnancy.
