Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The mild bleeding and pieces of tissue that you are passing is normally seen in abortion of 5 months baby. The pain in lower abdomen is suggestive of cramps of the uterus. You can get an ultrasound scan done to check for the complete expulsion of products.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
