HI, I understand your concern. Hepatitis C when left untreated. Is known to cause cirrhosis liver after many years of infection & such untreated hepatitis can affect fetal development.  But fortunately you were sufficiently treated to take the infection out of your system. I don't think you need to be stressed about fetal abnormality. Still routine pregnancy check-ups/ special tests for excluding fetal anomaly are needful First thing is to tell your treating doctor about your infection. So that he would be careful while treating you.  Thanks.
