Longer period after taking morning after pill (plan B)

So I took the morning after pill 2 weeks before my current period. My normal periods last 7-8 days I’m on day 11 and still bleeding. Not a lot more like spotting now. Do you find your periods are heavier and last longer after you take the emergency contraception (plan b)?

Open condom wrapper

What would you do if you found an open condom wrapper in the dryer?? You confront your spouse about it and he says that it probably came out of his old work pants. Mind you, y’all haven’t used protection in over a year. Any thoughts or has anybody experienced something similar??
