Late period

Well, my girl is on the pill and has been on it for awhile. Her period was supposed to start saturday/sunday and it's already wednesday and nothing so far......
I most always pull out and have only ejaculated once inside this month.
It's almost never this late and it's been really scaring the shit out of me AND her most of all.
Could anyone soothe my mind and reassure me that she's just stressed from her first couple weeks being back at school and the stress is what's prolonging her period.
Thanks guys 
Wish me luck.

huh, I just googled this and the answer was really strange:
"The monthly bleeding episode pill users have is a fake period (withdrawal bleeding). The fake period is a "designer" bleeding. There's no medical/health reason for it; rather it was built-in to make pill use more acceptable to women/politicians/religious leaders of the time. How often you get a fake period depends on the pill regimen you use. For example, on the regular 3 weeks on active pills/1 week on placebo pills, you have a monthly fake period. On a 6 weeks on/1 weeks off, you have a fake period every 6 weeks, etc."
How weird. I guess we were both right.

As far as I know, birth control pills work by tricking the body into thinking it's pregnant already.

Depends on the type of pill. The old ones just had a week of placebo so the girl kept track of taking pills. For that week she would usually have a period. But they can be very light.
Some of the new pills advertise a super light or no period at all. They have lower levels of hormones and no placebos.
If she hasn't forgotten to take her pills chances are you are safe.

i thought the 'pill period' was the lining of the uterus being expelled, so the ovaries could produce another egg.

The pill is what, 98% effective? Chances are, as long as she didn't forget to take any pills, that she's fine. But a pregnancy test could never hurt and may help alleviate the stress!
But while I'm on the subject -- the pill is really not healthy! It fucks with a woman's natural horomone cycles. It tricks your body into thinking it's pregnant for 3 weeks then let's it menstruate for a week. It's totally artificial. Condoms with spermicidal lube are a way better contraceptive.

Menstruation and ovulation are not the same process. It is entirely possible to have a period without ovulating.

if she took it your fine, if she however FORGOT to take it for say a day and then took it again, the protection cannot be guaranteed anymore.
my mum works @ a gynecologist and im pretty good educated on that subject and never got a girl preggo on the pill either.
the pill is safe, however it depends on the reposnibility of the user.

also be aware that worrying about a missed period can also do somethin to delay it too..
i'm not really knowledgable about periods, just from girlfriends i've had but i know girls still do get their periods on the pill and that it isn't 100% garunteed to begin with (pretty damn good though).
one of my girlfriends period kinda jumped around on the pill though. its still kinda early to be too too worried about it. maybe get a pregnancy test or two if you're really worried?

I bought a test a couple nights ago and we tried it last night.
NEGATIVE!
But now is the waiting game....
Man, I never want to experience that feeling for another ten or so years.

Worth noting: antibiotics may reduce the effectiveness of birth control pills. Women do not always remember to tell their doctor that they are on the pill, so the doctor may not mention this interaction. It's a good idea to use a back-up method during the month following a course of antibiotics.
