Ok everyone, here's the situation. Today i'm supposed to get my period and I haven't gotten it yet (it usually comes around the same time of the day every month). I haven't been stressed out or anything like that. The only thing I can think of is 2 times this month I took my pill about a half hour earlier than usual because I was going out and didn't want to forget completely. The last time my boyfriend and I had sex was about a week ago on tuesday... The second time I took my pill early was friday that same week.
I've been on my pills for 8 months.
Any ideas anyone? :?

The half hour difference wouldn't change anything.. When I was on the pill I would take them within a 2 hour range of the same time each day.. But rarely the same exact time and I never had any irregularities. Even being on the pill for years, you can still become irregular now and then. It doesn't sound like there should be any problems, I would just wait it out.

Yeah, that's the plan... To wait it out. I just hope i'm not one of the one out of one hundred people that use the pill correctly that still get pregnant! Haha.
