So, i was ment to get my new pack from family planning about 2 weeks ago, but because if we get a couple of inches of snow in england everything seems to fall apart they had to cancel my appointment. I havnt got it, but i plan to get it in a week or 2 when i know how my college time table is planning out.
Can my body handle taking a rest from the pill for a couple of weeks, then suddenly going back into the routein of it?

Im pretty sure you can take a week off and go back on it with no problems, apart from of course, you will have to use extra protection for a week or so when you start again as you wont be protected then.
You WON'T be protected for probably a week or two, so err on the side of caution if you rely on it for contraception, and you might have a little bit of erratic bleeding or other minor symptoms, but it should settle down quickly!
Thats what I said
I was reiterating your correctness
