    Beginning the contraceptive pill
    Ive just began taking the pill, and was told to begin taking it on the first day of my period. I took one pill when I began bleeding lightly thinking this was the first day of my period, however on the second day the bleeding stopped. Should I carry on taking the pill or leave it until my period does start?

    Yeah me too.. you might just want to call you dr. and check, but call asap, because if you wait to long you have to just throw that whole pack away and start anew next cycle..?
