The urine pregnancy test doesn't become negative soon after the abortion. It may take up to 2 weeks after the abortion. Please mention the dates of all the occurrences like the date of last period, date of D&C and the date of any period after the D&C (if you had).

Since ultrasound after the abortion was normal. You can wait for your next period.
If you still there is some discharge or spotting ., wear an sanitary pad and observe the amount of discharge or bleeding. lf you notice any foul smelling discharge or heavy bleeding with clots, please consult your local obgyn immediately

Pregnancy test following an abortion can be positive up to next 45 days
If the ultrasound ensured that all was clear you did not require the repeat pregnancy test
