The xray tech asked me if I had ever carried a baby full-term. She mentioned that she would have to do something different if I had.

NOTE:
I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT PROTECTING A CURRENT PREGNANCY. SHE ASKED ABOUT PAST PREGNANCIES.
Thanks.

I'm an x-ray tech and I've never heard of asking that. Maybe the radiologist saw something unusual and needed a different view. Definitely ask your doctor.

Having a baby causes your pelvic bones to spread. This would make them appear in a different position on the X-ray.

If I'm not mistaken, carrying a baby full term will cause a woman's bones to appear different.

I dont have any idea why she would have asked you that.Maybe you could ask your doctor about it next time you go.Maybe since it was on your back, she would have to turn you different or something because of how your back may change after pregnancy.
