Hi! I had an abortion on the 15th November 06 and was 15 weeks pregnant. I bleed for three weeks , quite heavy and then had a two week break. I then had light bleeding for seven days and then another two week gap and had light bleeding for 5 days. I have had nothing since the 19th january 07 and i'm so scared im preganant even though we have used condoms. I don't want to get a pregancy test because i am scared of the result. Im walking around thinking i'm pregant but don't know if i am just paranoid!
That bleeding pattern sounds normal. One of those "bleeds" was likely a period.
*DEEP BREATH* Condoms are quite effective at preventing pregnancy when used properly, so as long as you used a condom EVERY SINGLE TIME, your risk is quite low.
Consider using a pregnancy test. IF you are pregnant, an abortion at 6-8 weeks is so much easier than 15 weeks.
