I started the pill the sunday after my period started which was last week. I only stayed on it 5 days but I stopped because I already ruined it by forgetting it one day, and not taking it at the same time. I decided I would just start over from scratch next month. It's only been a couple of days since I stopped and I'm on a light period...and it's not my time. Do I start the new pill cycle next Sunday? Or wait until my "real" period starts. Is this normal to "spot" after stopping the pill too early?

Go ahead and start on Sunday. What women experience on the pill isn't a true period; the bleeding is a sign of withdrawl from the hormones in the pill, which is what you're expirencing. It's normal. My doctor told me the same thing when I did that my first month on the pill four years ago. Also, forgetting one day isn't a big deal. Just take your pill as soon as you remember. For more information on what to do if you miss, look at the insert that came with your pills; it should tell you what to do about missing pills.

Are you particular she ovulated? How did she be attentive to? it generally takes 10 days with out pills for a girl to ovulate. although that is definitely a risk after 5 days. Or after 8 days if she went 8 dyas. i might say that is fairly a risk she ought to be pregnant. She could wait and take a try.
