Is it dangerous for me to be around computers all day when i'm pregnant?

No: The older television style cathode ray tube (CRT) computer screens did put out a small amount of ionizing radiation but it wasn't enough to harm baby. The newer flat screens are even safer. There is no evidence that being around computers all day is harmful to your baby. Best wishes!
