Ibuprofen concerns

This is all quite silly and hysterical and I don't think it matters much. I've been trying to conceive for a few months - immediately after an 11 weeks miscarriage - and I took a double dose of ibuprofen a few days ago (it would have been a day or two after conception, if I'd conceived) and then I wondered how safe it was and read the internet, which says that around conception is the WORST time in your pregnancy to take ibuprofen, and taking it any time increases the risk of miscarriage by 80% but taking it at conception time is higher. And now I'm worried that - well, this is so unlikely, but you know how you worry - I have conceived and ruined it already, but it's going to take another 12 weeks before it aborts, rather than it instantly just not implanting. I'm not sure what I'm asking, really, because what's done is done. But does anyone know anything about this?

i had some treatment, had a severe cold (took numerous cold remedys/pills) etc when i would've just fallen pg with ds and he is fine. However, if just to put your mind at risk speak to your gp.
