Is it only considered having a stillborn child after the 20th week of pregnancy? does it matter if I experience a miscarriage at 13 weeks at the end of december?

First, I am sorry for your loss.

A miscarriage that early is not a stillborn child. 

Here is a link for the IRS position on stillborn children:  IRS on Stillborns
