Hello ma'am and welcome.
Of course pain killers are contraindicated during pregnancy as they can do more harm than help, but if at all you took only the mentioned dosage and promise not to take anymore pain management medication unless your doctor prescribes it we can hope for a healthy baby.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
