within the last two weeks, i had the norovirus, that nasty cruise virus that makes you vomit and have diarrhea for about two to three days. on those couple of days that i was sick, i continued taking my birth control pill, but was a couple hours off (maybe a half a day at maximum) still taking the pill.
its now past time to get my period (2 days) and im a bit worried because i cant remember the last time my boyfriend and i had sex (although, we always use condoms and obviously im on the pill).
could the illness have screwed with my system making my period late? im kind of worried and unsure what i should do about starting my fresh pack of BC pills on sunday...
please let me know if this has happened to anyone else!

If you read the instructions on the pill, I'm sure it says something about vomitting.
I think if you are vomitting it is possible that the pill may not be absorbed correctly and may not work, you are advised to use extra protection when you are ill like this.
I've noticed that you said you used protection as well, so it's very very unlikely you are pregnant.
Probably being ill and worrying has just delayed it for a few days, try not to worry too much and wait and see.
