No matter what your mother does or dos not do now, if you were born to a woman who was misgayeres k’halacha, you were born a Jew, and a Jew you will always be. If there is a doubt as to the validity of her own conversion, you should seek competent halachic authority to tell you what you might need to do. I know someone in a similar type situation, where there was a safeik on the mother, so the man (who had become a baal teshuvah) underwent hatafa (a drop of blood, in lieu of circumcision, as he already was circumcised as an infant), and tevila, just so there would be no doubt on him.
