My girlfriend used to never take her birth control consistently. She would forget for a few days and she would randomly get her period because of it. since her last period, she has taken it pretty consistently, missing 3 days total and a few late days but never consecutively. Would that throw off when she actually gets her period?
Girlfriend is a day late on period and still hasn't had it?

It sounds like you need to remind her every day to take her pill. She is still being very careless with it, she should not miss any pills. If she wants the protection the pill offers she has to take correctly. That means around the same time EVERY day. Now, a day late what's that? Since our periods don't tell us they are coming on a specific day how to judge a day late? On the pill she should get it during the week she is not taking active pills. On the average its the 3 or 4 day, but that's not a set rule.
