I'm 11w3d pregnant today. I got in a minor car crash this morning on my way home from my boyfriend's house. I rear-ended the car in front of me, it was my fault. I didn't hit hard enough to even feel the seatbelt put extra pressure on my stomach or chest. Both drivers and cars are fine. The cars just may need minor repairs. I felt completely fine aside from freaking out for the first few hours. Now I have a lot of low back pain (which I had before so I can't tell if it's worse or not) and a pretty bad headache. I barely even rocked in the car when I hit the other car so I shouldn't have whiplash or anything. Could just be a stress headache. Do I need to tell my OB immediately or is it okay to wait until my next appointment on April 11th?

I had an accident early on... advice line suggested I go to urgent care, but they didn't check on the baby as I was only 7 weeks. Could call your ob and see what they suggest, but headache could possibly be concussion too so might be worth doing urgent care for anyways
My clinic is closed for the night and I'm working until midnight anyway. I'll try to call them tomorrow even though it's Saturday.
