Some people I know who've had a D/C (basically the same procedure as an abortion for missed miscarriages) that have said their bleeding is minimal and only lasted a few days.

I can understand how a woman can not know she's pregnant if 1) she's overweight and 2) she has a hormonal imbalance such as PCOS where she would not have regular menstrual cycles. But by 20 weeks, the second Dr. really *should* have been able to tell she was pregnant. Even an external abdominal exam should have tipped the Dr. off that *something* wasn't right, unless again, the woman was overweight (only because excess fat makes it difficult to feel internal organs thoroughly).

I agree her timeline seems off. If her daughter was born around her due date, the woman would have only been 5 weeks pregnant at the time of the abortion. That's not very far along. (A woman is considered two weeks pregnant at the time of conception and usually doesn't know she is pregnant until she is technically 4 weeks along. So, at the most, the woman could have only known she was pregnant for roughly a week). If her daughter was born 1-2 weeks past her actual due date, it may be more plausible.
