I had to stop taking my pill for over a month because it expired. After getting checked by my GYNO and waiting for my period to come I did have my period, late. The last couple of days during my period my b/f and I had sex without a condom. Then, after taking my pill for the first time yesterday, we did it 45 min. later and he came inside me (again without a condom). Will I get pregnant because he did that?

No one can say whether you will or will not get pregnant from this, but you are putting yourself at a higher risk of pregnancy than if you used your pills properly (you are protected from the first day if you start your pills on the first day of your period, if you do a Sunday start (which it sounds like you did) you are supposed to use backup for the first 7 active pills - this board & many doctors recommend the whole forst month, regardless of when you start). If I were you I would call your doctor & get his/her opinion. Emergancy contraception could be an option at this point.
