What are the risk of my baby at this time and should I proceed with the pregnancy? Doctor: Good morning. I feel very sorry for u. U had underwent o lot of procedures.  it is very dangerous if fetus is exposed to radiation in early weeks as most of internal organs start forming. Now u say that ur in 10-11weeks of pregnancy. U undergo detailed examination and ultrasound examination. If anyproblem is moted u can take opinion of your gynecologist. Thank u
