Spotting while on hormonal birth control is perfectly normal (some women have their periods during the active pills and need stronger birth control). I have no idea what day Feb 29th was, but my advice is to wait to take it out until you find out what your doctor says. I'm guessing he'll tell you that it's normal and that you should keep it in until the three weeks are up. Taking it out early increases the risk of pregnancy, and it's really not a good idea to disregard package insert instructions and make up your own without consulting your doctor.

leave it in until friday. use as directed. spotting is very common in the first 2-4 cycles on hormonal contraception
