I'm also Rh -ve, and I was sent an appointment "in case I wanted it" and also a leaflet saying my baby would die if I didn't have this. I instead made sure I had the blood test for abnormal antibodies a few days before the anti-D appointment (rather than 10 minutes before); no abnormal antibodies, one cancelled appointment. You only create the antibodies IF the baby is RH +ve and IF your blood mingle - if you have a bump or someone hits your tummy, get checked out, but otherwise you will probably be fine. Sorry, bit of a rant from me because the hospital didn't like me cancelling for any reason - they are too injection happy here!
I hope you "pass" your blood test so don't need the anti-D and also that the lump you've found is nothing sinister - telling a pregnant woman not to worry isn't going to work, so I'll just wish you all the best.
