Probably fine: While this was not the best thing to happen as there is a fair amount of radiation that you get from CT scan, and we prefer not to expose the fetus to radiation unnecessarily, it will most likely not harm the baby.

Did you notify as PG: Did you notify the CT scanners that you were pregnant? It is time to see a OB MD and determine if there were or were not any problems by testing.
