Let me get this straight, you are pregnant and been punched repeatedly in the stomach. So, instead of going to a hospital or your doctor you are asking for advice on Yahoo Answers?? Well if any of this is true you need to give the baby up for adoption maybe on ebay.

Like most others are saying, see your doctor, and the cops.
There was a case here in NZ a while back where a promising young rugby league player (like American Football, only they don't wear those huge pads) got a couple of his mates together to assault his pregnant girlfriend in an attempt to make her miscarry. The 3 of them beat her up OK, but she didn't miscarry, and the baby was born just fine. (The three murderous thugs were jailed - for assault. They're out now, and the league player even got re-hired by his old club!) It may depend on how far along you are - I repeat, see your doctor. And get that loser arrested!
(Sorry, don't know of any websites.)

The womb is usually the safest place for a baby, but yes, he/she could be injured or killed. Watch for the passing of blood and cramping. Please go to the ER (they can't refuse to see you, even if you can't pay) and tell them what happened. They will do a pregnancy test and depending on how far along you are, a doppler to hear the heart beat and maybe an ultrasound. They will also treat whatever wounds you have.
I hope you are not seeing this jerk anymore. You need to file a police report and put a restraining order against him. And find a safe place to stay, honey.
Best wishes. Take care of yourself.

I doubt there's good statistical data on whether or not you will miscarry. There's too many variables out there. Historically it's a very bad method to induce abortion, as it causes a lot of harm to the woman. You should get to a doctor double-quick, as hard blows to the stomach can be very dangerous even if you are not pregnant. They will be able to tell you if your baby is all right.

Go and get your self check by a Dr. and he will be the only one that can tell you they can do an ultrasound or you can have a quantitative lab test and if the count of the baby is going low it means is dead.I know is hard to get out of this type of relationships but be strong and kick him to the curb cause maybe this time is your baby but next time you may not be so lucky your self .

1. Seek medical attention.
2. Report your abusive boyfriend to the police.
3. Dump this guy pronto. If he's the father of your unborn child and has done this to you, then he's someone you definitely don't want to be around and you certainly don't want your kid around him either. A lot of men think it's the woman's sole responsibility to prevent conception. Not so. It takes two to make a baby so the responsibility has to be 50/50. I suppose he refuses to use condoms.

leave your boyfriend today. If him finding out that your pregnant isn't a good thing for him then he doesn't love you. Go to the doctors and check it out. Your boyfriend hitting your baby isn't healthy it hurts you and the unborn child.

i was assaulted when i was pregnant and luckily i and my baby were fine but i went to the hospital to get checked out and had to stay in over night for observations, the doctors at the hospital told me that if you are assaulted while pregnant then it can sometimes tell your body that you are having contractions and send you in to early labour, so definately go and get checked out!
go and stay somewhere your bf cant harm you or your unborn child and report him this behaviour isnt acceptable!

Get away from that boyfriend, imagine what he could do to your baby once he/she is born. Go to the emergency room asap and call the cops. You are now in charge of protecting your little one, this guy is dangerous.

Have you experienced bleeding or spotting, or cramps? These could be signs of a miscarriage, and not only that you could have internal bleeding. Please go to a doctor and get checked out. And I really hope you broke up with the jerk and called the cops on him.
