    the pill and pregnancy

    hi all,
    i am in the first day of the red section of the pill and havent gotten my period yet. this is the first time this has happened, i have always started my period on the first day of this red section. just wondering when i should start to think pregnancy? give it a day or two and see what happens or do a preg test now>?

    When I used to take the pill, I mostly didn't start af until 2 or 3 pills into the sugar section. Don't test yet, wait it out a while.

    When I was on the pill, I didn't get a period until I'd finished the week of sugar pills :|

    Wait it out. Heaps of things can cause delayed periods. Stress, illness etc.

    When I was on the pill my AF often didn't start til Tuesday or even later (and it was 'meant' to start Mon). Once it didn't even arrive til Friday which was pretty random! I'd wait a few days before testing.
