I woke up this morn with slight vaginal burning. i am on my period could my pads be causing this?

Yes,: Sometimes women can develop a sensitivity or mild allergy to the protective garments they use. You can try to wait it out and see if it gets better; or try looking for a fragrance and dye-free product. They do make some organic, hypo-allergenic pads/liners for woment with sensitivities.
