I Am Having A Lot Of Gas And Feel Bloated After Abortion

I am 27 years old and had a surgical abortion 2 days ago I have been on bed rest since and taking my meds as prescribed I am currently taking an antibiotic called doxycycline and lamictal (not related to abortion but I take it) my question is that I am having a lot of gas (burping farting) and I feel really bloated before it is released and it just continues like that...is this normal or should I be concerned im not really in any pain (minor cramps) its just uncomfortable
