I just don't know whats normal when on the placebo pill week as to what day to start your period. 3rd? 5th?

I can't help you with your main question, but wanted to comment about the too late for an abortion comment. I was under the impression that you're supposed to take regular pregnancy tests (at least once a month) whenever you're on hormonal birth control. It reduces the risk of the hormones interfering with the pregnancy (You're supposed to stop your BC if you get pregnant) and exactly the situation you described above.
