Hi,
With the use of cytotec during pregnancy there is a risk that the baby will have birth defects ( limb defects, frontal and temporal bone defects, sixth and seventh nerve paralysis etc). Therefore it is not a good idea to keep the baby now.
I would certainly advise you to complete the abortion process.
To complete the abortion process discuss with your doctor and you may either repeat the cyctotec dose or have surgical procedure.
I hope I have answered to your satisfaction. If you have any further concerns do intact me through healthcare magic
