I had an abortion on Oct 23, 2008. I have not stopped bleeding since the procedure. At first the bleeding was light and brown in color, on and off for the first week. There were days that I didnt need to wear a pad at all and there were days I needed to wear just a liner to protect my undergarmets. After about the 3rd week, I decided it would probably be ok if I took a bath and returned to my normal routine, since then I have been bleeding non-stop, and now completely soaking pads with bright red blood in a matter of a couple hours. I have been bleeding for 43 days now, and I am very scared that something is wrong. Drs are saying it is normal to bleed for up to 8 weeks. I have an ultrasound sheduled for the ninth of Jan, but I dont know if I can wait that long. I feel very weak and tired and I dont feel like my medical provider is as concerned about this as I am????
If i were u i would go to a different doctor as all doctors give different adive
good luck xx
