X-rays in early pregnancy?

[mama to 2 girls]

Ok...I just got a faint BFP, due for period today....On tuesday I went in for my cleaning at the dentist and they took a BUNCH of x-rays!!!

They even asked if i was pregnant and I of course said NO!! It wasn't even a possibility!! We avoided 3 days before O and for 2-3 days after).

How worried should I be?

Don't worry! Besides the fact that worrying really doesn't help anything

Your baby is exposed to very little radiation during dental x-rays. You can do a search online and I think you'll be reassured. No, you shouldn't go out and x-ray multiple parts of your body during pregnancy, the same way you shouldn't go on drinking binges. But this one time exposure is unlikely to cause any damage.

Take care!
