I ate a whole tub of pringles. Bad for implantation?

So this is kinda a weird question but does anyone think it could do any harm and affect the chances of success? I am currently 9dpo I already have 2 children and with both pregnancies during the implantation stage I could almost feel it and knew I was pregnant . I know most don't have symptoms but with both my last 2 living children and my 2 miscarriages around implantation time I get bloated, cramping and have bowel issues. I've always knew I when I was pregnant. They've been all the same for me with these symptoms . I know that's odd. This month I felt it and took a test this morning and was positive. Ate a whole tub of pringles last night ( it was my birthday ) and today I'm not feeling the same down there in my belly. I know some might think I'm mad but do you think I could have affected implantation form one tub ? I know if salt raised blood pressure all this stuff which can affect it but do you think that's if your eating it longterm or would one tub affect it ?

No it wouldn’t affect it at all. If you have a positive then implantation has already taken place anyway, but even if it hadn’t, Pringles won’t have done anything. If your high levels of anxiety continue it’s really important to mention it to a midwife as you may be more likely to need extra support.

No. It wouldn’t. But I agree with the poster above. This seems quite extreme in terms of thought processes.

Do you have general anxiety? Are ND? Anything like that?

I would say absolutely not, so please don’t worry unnecessarily. You’re more likely to do more hard putting pressure and stress on yourself.
Best of luck to you!

*Harm not hard!

I thought implantation has to occur before you get a positive pregnancy test? So if it's positive then it's already happened and Pringles won't affect that.

No

People get pregnant and have successful pregnancies in some truly awful nutritional and environmental scenarios, heavy drug use, starvation, extreme cold, extreme heat.......

Obviously not ideal or recommended but I just wanted to illustrate that it's really not easy for you to negatively affect your baby via diet, especially something as small as a single tube of Pringles.
