Hi guys, I'm new :) pleased to meet you all.:D

Ok, I know some people may not agree with abortion, but I'm here for help not criticism:rolleyes:

2 weeks ago I had an abortion (which I regret) :( The night before (as I was already pregnant) my husband and I had unprotected sex... would all the sperm have been removed during the procedure or is there a chance I could have fallen pregnant again within these last 2 weeks? We've not had sex since that night, as it is not allowed after abortion due to the risk of infection. Help please I am a bit worried... I am still having pregnancy signs, such as increased vaginal discharge and sensitive breasts with tingly nipples.. are these signs of the pregnancy I terminated or could they be signs of a new pregnancy? I am not sure if (after the abortion) I would have started ovulating again straight away, or would I have to wait until I had had a period?

Those are probably still symptoms from the pregnancy you just terminated. Your hormone levels do not just drop down to zero once you terminate, it takes time.

An abortion is a shock to your system, you probably wouldn't have gotten pregnant even if any sperm was still present.

You hormones are still adjusting to the fetus being gone... for all your body knows.. you are pregnant. It is going to take a bit of time for your hormones to adjust to the pregnancy suddenly ending.
