Chest x-ray at 22w pregnant

I have a medical exam coming up and they require me to do a chest x-ray. I will be 22w pregnant at the time of exam and the clinic assured me that protection will be given. Is it safe enough for the baby? Have any moms done an x-ray while they're pregnant? I'm so worried that it could affect my first baby. Tia #firstbaby #pleasehelp #1stimemom

Firstly, what is the reason for them getting you to do X-ray? If is not life threatening, I strongly against you to do as they can’t assured that the radiation will not get into baby. Otherwise why would clinic and X-ray centres always ask if you are pregnant before doing one? Hope you are well mummy!
