Question, pill & periods?

Well usually I can be forgetful when it comes to the pill, forgetting pill here and there. Well the past saturday I took my last pill and was sopouse to start my "sugar pill" week. For some reason I thought I was sopouse to start my new pack the next day(sunday) when really I was sopouse to start this upcoming sunday. well I took sunday, monday and tuesday's pill and then relized I have been taking the pill to early since it was sopouse to be my "sugar pill" week. I called my dr's and the nurse said just to keep taking the pills as if I was sopouse to. I dont remember her saying to take the whole pill pack or not, so do I continue taking the whole pack? And she said I might get a delayed period. Well, I was sopouse to get it on Wensday(still taking the pill) and Im getting cramps but still no period. Does that mean I wont get it till next month when Im on the sugar pill? & is my period going to be heavier or longer from skipping a month? Thanxs!

I dont know if I can just stop at all the white pills. I wont have any other pills to start taking if I start back up next week. Since I just got my refill I dont think my pharmacy would give me another refill till its time. So I might just have to take the whole pack. Question, if I take the whole pack, should I expect my period during the sugar free week? And should it be a normal period and not heavy since I just got my period? Kinda sucks to have to bleed while taking the pill but I guess thats the price you have to pay when you take it to early!

If the pharmacy won't refill in time, simply ask your doctor for a sample of the same pill you are taking.

HTH,
