What Causes Early Menstrual Bleeding And Abdominal Cramps?

my boyfriend and i were having sex one night and he finished inside of me and i forgot to take my birth control that morning and then i was late taking it the next day. and then i lost one of the pills a couple days after because i dropped it and couldn’t find it. i’ve been on birth control for almost 2 years and here’s where it gets weird: i started bleeding and having slight cramping that’s come and go, over a week before my expected period. i’m supposed to start my period tomorrow but the light bleeding and brown ish occasionally pink ish discharge and cramping that comes and goes, hasn’t stopped. i’m so confused i don’t know what to do or what this could be. this hasn’t ever happened before but it’s just worrisome you know :/
