Okay so the last pack I got I was three weeks late taking it due to financial issues, I was told to start on a new day so I did. After I finished the same pack again my financial issues got in my way and I was supposed to start Tuesday (March 3) and its now late at night Friday the 6th. Do I need to start a new day or play catch up? Also when is the latest I can play catch up?
I haven't taken my birth control in a week!?

You can't play catch up after you're 2 days Into the pills. If you keep having these problems its hardly worth taking them. I'd go to planned parenthood and try to get on at least the shot.
Okay but I need to start on a new day?
