Skipping Placebo Week

Hey y’all,

So I’ve been on the pill for about a year & a half now, and last week I decided I just wasn’t in the mood for my period since I had a pretty busy week ahead of me. I did some research & asked my nurse friend & decided that it’d be fine if I missed one, so I tried it out. This past week (2/10 - 2/16) should’ve been my period but instead i just went right into my next month of regular pills.

The past 2 days I’ve been having light-moderate cramps, but haven’t had any spotting. Is this normal, or at least semi-common?? I’m not sure if I should just tough it out until I get to this month’s placebo pills or if I need to take last week’s placebo pills to get my body back in check 🤦🏼‍♀️
