If it's been a week you should probably go to the doctor. It's something you shouldn't let go. You actually should go to the emergency room; if it is infection it could be really bad by the time you can see the doc on Monday. Better safe than sorry because it could make you very sick. You're paying the price right now by beating yourself up over it. Take a big deep breath, forgive yourself and don't worry about what others could be thinking about you. And I'm going out on the Jesus limb right now but He will forgive you, you can forgive yourself and you'll get on with your life and do good things. I'm not saying you will forget about it and never think about it again but you can get out there and do some positive things with your life and it will be better. Time and forgiveness is a good healer. I'll pray for you tonight but you do need to get to the doctor to be sure you don't have an infection!!!!!!

Look for discharge but get seen by a gynecologist, it's THEIR profession and you can see one free through Planned Parenthood. Don't ignore pain and read anything they gave you to take care of yourself. No stair climbing for a few days or lifting over 20 lbs or some such? Just like any other woman giving birth, you are not at 100% for a while. There should be a follow-up appointment with a ob/gyn 1 week after to make sure the healing is going well. AND DON'T HAVE SEX FOR A MONTH! You're way wrong Michael! She could get an infection, my gawd people use your freaking head!

scar tissue can occure in abortion in which might give you some pain, but you should go to your doctor and get a rutine papsmear and tell them that you just had an abortion and they will test for any infection.

give your body time. pain may be there--your body is adjusting to the fact that you are not carrying a child anymore. you will be ok, just use protection when having sex until you are ready.
