Hi Judith :)

It's fine to bleed lightly for a few weeks to a few months. However, you'll want to see a doctor so they can make sure all the tissue cleared, and that the pregnancy was terminated. You don't even need to say anything about the abortion, you can mention the bleeding and the pregnancy, and it may appear as a miscarriage.
