NuvaRing- OOPS forgot to put new one in

I have a couple of questions:
First, Sunday is my normal day for removing and inserting my ring. This current cycle I forgot until Wednesday (this was the 8th). I just want to double check that I'm totally safe against pregnancy at this point.
Secondly, I'm expecting a visit from my long distance boyfriend (Sunday- Thursday). When I take my ring out on Sunday, I typically get my period on Tuesday. I'm wondering what effect taking my ring out Wednesday will have. Given that I have had early withdrawal bleeding before, and I haven't been able (on nuvaring anyway) to change my period by either leaving the ring in for an extra week, or changing the ring with a new one. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, as the trip can be postponed, although these dates are most convenient.
Thanks so much!

Can you clarify? What date did you put in the current ring and when was the next one due to be put in? That will help us to answer your questions. If you just forgot to take out the current ring and the new one is not due until this coming Sunday you should be just fine.
