Well first of all I think thats an old wives tale, but she needs to go to a doctor and get herself checked out asap!

Cinnamon are you kidding me, definitly a wives tale? I think that she should go to the doctor and get a test done and make sure that she is ok. How did she know that she was pregnant? Could this just be her regular period..Ohh wait 4 weeks, wait 4 weeks, that could be something serious. When a person has a miscarriage they have to go and a d & c to make sure that they dont get an infection, and to "clean" them out. I think "she" should go to the doctor!!
