There is no known reason not to have an MRI during pregnancy. However, doctors generally try to avoid offering this exam if you’re in the first twelve weeks of pregnancy. The doctor might speak with one of the MRI radiologists (the doctors who specialize in MRI) to discuss whether this is the best exam to help diagnose your medical symptoms.
