Has anyone ever skipped the placebo pills and just go right into taking your next pack of pills in order to skip a period? I've never done that before but just realized I should have my period on my honeymoon!! I hear this is safe, but what are the side effects??

Yes, the only issue is the insurance thing, you would have to buy an extra pack out of pocket. also, the period you get on the pill is artificial anyway, you dont really need to have it. i read somewhere that when they were first developing the pill in the 50's/60's you didnt get your period at all. but the women who where testing it said they felt 'un-womanly' to not have a period at all. which is now why they tell you to take a week off to get your period. but i would do the week off now, not the week of the wedding. i love the pill! when else can you plan your period!
I'm pretty sure my doc told me something along the same lines. Definitely check with your doctor, but you should be fine.
