Had Light Cramps And Bleeding After Taking Misoprostal Vaginally. Was The Abortion Successful?

hi, I'm 7 weeks pregnant. two days ago, I took 5 pills of 200mg Misoprostol vaginally at 12.30 a.m. and started to have light cramps one and a half hour later. at 4 a.m. I experienced severe cramping for almost 2 hours and I started bleeding. but I might not bleed as much as I thought I would. my pad was not soak with blood, though whenever I go to the toilet, blood comes gushing out. then last night, I took another 5 pills of 200mg Misoprostol vaginally. but I did not experience anymore severe cramps and my bleeding kind of slowed down. I'm getting worried. is the abortion successful?
