When they did the xray did they put a lead blanket over your midsection?  A lot of times doctors will do this just to be safe.  It's standard practice to ask if there's a chance you could be pregnant.  If they did your baby is perfectly safe....even if they didn't your baby should be fine.

I had mouth xrays when i was 8 months pregnant.
