How many days into pill free 7 week do you get a period?

Hoping someone can put my mind at rest! Recently started taking the pill again (am on Yasmin) after 5 year break and took 2 packs back to back to begin with (wanted to avoid a period last month!) Took my last pill of the packet on Thursday night but no sign of period yet.
Just wondered if that was normal? Can't remember how many days into the pill free week I used to get my period before. Just a bit worried I might be pregnant!!!

I finish mine on a sunday and AF usually visits wednesday night/thursday morning.

When I was on it, would take the last one on Thursday, and come on Sunday afternoon.

When I was on it, it was getting later and later- sometimes 6 days after!

When I was on the pill I used to take the last one on a Tuesday and get AF on Sunday morning.

Thanks so much for the replies. Feel much better now! Was feeling very panicky at the prospect of an unplanned pregnancy. Will tell DH that he can relax too
