As title suggests, just been hit (not hard) by a football in playground (primary school teacher). Didn't hurt, but still... It'll be ok won't it??

I would imagine as its so tiny and not quite in your stomach yet (more down in your pelvis I think) its nothing to worry about?

Hopefully someone will be a long with better info to reassure you soon!

Baby is too small and too low for any damage I would imagine. I fell down the stairs when pregnant and got kicked in the stomach by my then 11 month old. I didn't even know I was pregnant and would have been about 6 weeks at the time. No damage was done.

You'll be fine. Baby is barely the size of a grain of rice and is deep within your pelvis so extremely well protected.

Yep your pelvis would of protected baby, it's around 12 weeks that your uterus will come above it.
And even then baby has a lot of fluid around them to protect them.
