Answer

I'm really not trying to jump to conclusions but when I see posts like this and they are anon, I'm always skeptical.

I'm always worried the poster knows someone who said they had a MC and the poster is trying to discredit them. Or it's someone who is in their 2nd trimester and is looking for reassurances that it won't happen to them (Which is not the purpose of this forum)

I hope in wrong but I always tend to stay on the side of caution with anonymous posts...

Back when I was 15 I slipped on ice on New Year's Day of 2013 and landed face first and obviously landed on my belly, a few hours later I had the worst pains ever and began to bleed heavy.. Turned out I was 17 weeks pregnant and had to be induced and had a still birth to what was a healthy 1 lb 9onz little boy until I mashed his head 😭 was due on 14/04/13 me and my partner light a candle for his birthday every year 💙
