No, : No, that is not normal, and you should be immediately evaluated. If you have blood in your stool, that is not a normal finding, and you should be seen as an emergency, especially if you have fever, pain, vomiting, or light-headedness.

Vaginal bleeding ?: Bleeding after a medical or surgical abortion is not unusual, as the pregnant uterus has thickened lining of endometrium, which will cause bleeding like a period as the body sloughs the extra cellular material. If this becomes "heavy", see the physician who performed the abortion, as occasionally placental tissue remains in the womb, and needs to be further removed.
