Rhogam Shot after birth

Hello Bump friends,

So something happened yesterday. I was discharged from the hospital after my son's birth on Saturday. The hospital called me YESTERDAY to tell me my nurse had forgotten my after birth rhogam shot. It is now past the recommended 72 hour period of getting it and I'm getting worried since all the research I have done has said that it can lead to future complications with Rh incompatible pregnancies. I'm waiting on a call back from the hospital because I can't just go in and get it now since we had to make an emergency move which now has the drive to my hospital too far away. 

Is there anyone with medical knowledge or experience in a similar case that might be able to set my mind at ease while I wait anxiously for my doctor to call back?
