bt-bleedings and skipping your period

I started on the pill a couple of months ago, and I've been having breakthrough bleedings. My doctor said that this was perfectly normal, and to just keep taking the pills and not worry about it. What I'm wondering now, is if I can skip the sugar pills this month and not have my period. Does that work, or will I just keep right on bleeding, because of the breakthroug bleedings??? I ment to ask my doctor about this, but I had a thousand other things on my mind, he was a bit stressed too, I think, and then I just forgot... Now I can't get a hold om him.

Anyway, I hope someone can help me with this question.

Oh, and I'm new here, by the way. Hello:)
