An MRI is not an x-Ray. MRI stands for Magnetic Resonance Imaging. It is done with a magnet not gamma rays. If your doctor thought it would hurt your baby the doctor would not have ordered it.

If you have any concerns you should check with your GYN for advice. Your GYN is the one caring for you and you unborn child and should have the final say as to whether or not you should have the MRI or not.
