Hello dear
Understand your concern,
Yes bleeding after taking misoprostol suggests abortion.
As your pregnancy is 5 week, bleeding may be slight.
There may be chance of defect in baby because misoprostol can cause skull deformity and face malformation.
So please consult the gynecologist.
Do USG and take proper advice
And better to go for surgical abortion
Hope this may help you
Best regards
