Im 8weeks pregnant and had a silver filling placed while pregnant has had cracked tooth n needed itwill my unborn baby be ok i have read it harmful?

No correlation: Your unborn will not be affected by that silver filling or any other silver fillings you might have. Amalgams have been placed for over 150 years on millions and millions of teeth, and countless millions have been born during that time period. You would think if they were dangerous there would be a detectable pattern. Forget what you've read. Others may disagree, but fact is fact.

You are ok!: The amount of mercury in an amalgam "silver" filling is negligible. Treating your tooth problem properly allows you to continue through your pregnancy without that tooth being at risk for further problems, decay, and infection which are more detrimental to the health of your baby than getting a filling. Although i would prefer to place composite fillings free of metal, your baby should be fine.

Baby & U will be OK: As I have stated repeatedly on Health Tap, while mercury is part of silver fillings, decades of dental and medical scientific research have proven beyond a doubt that silver mercury fillings are safe. So don't worry...you and your unborn baby are totally safe.
