Worried!!!!!

I am almost 6 weeks pregnant with a very very crappy flu bug. I took 2 capsules of ibuprofen (200 mg each) 2 MAYBE 3 times over the course of 2 days. So 800-1200 mg in 48 hrs. I am freaking out because i Comepetely forgot you arent supposed to take it while pregnant!!!!!!!!! Someone please reassure me that baby will be fine!!!!
