Xrays while TTC

MomOnTheEdgeMomOnTheEdge
in TTC after 35
DD needed an xray last week for a possible broken arm. The tech put the lead apron on me so I could stay in the room with her but also asked if there was any chance I could be pg. I told her no. Now I think there is a slight chance. Is this terrible? help!

    Since you wore the lead there is very little to be concerned about.
    Photobucket Me:36 DH: 34 TTC since 02/2012, not preventing since 2010. Me: testing came back good. DH: dx: MIF low count/motility. RE recommends IVF with ICSI. Update: DH just diagnosed with severe Crohn's disease, so any IF treatment is on hold :(

    I agree with pps. The lead gets worn by the techs for a reason.

    Next time, though, ask them also for the thyroid guard. There's a link between exposure to Xray radiation and thyroid issues-- which in turn, do not help TTC. 

    I have to lead up all the time and my docs haven't said a thing about it as a concern...
