Pill Question!!

Ok, I feel really stupid, but I have to ask this!!

Last weekend the time changed, but Saturday the 30 was my last pill day. So Sunday I didn't take a pill, I got my period that week, but tonight I was supposed to start my pills again. I used to take my Pill at 12 midnight, but after the time change, I'd need to take it at 11pm, right? Or can I still take it at midnight since I started a new pack? I'm confused, but I really do not want problems, so I'd really like to do this right, ya know? I thought I should take it at 11pm, but now I'm thinking it doesn't matter since I skipped that week and am starting the new pack AFTER the time change. Ugh, some help would make me feel ok about this!

The time change shouldn't have affected your pill schedule--with a combination pill, that one hour difference fits within the on-time window. I hope you took your pill at your regular time! Or at least took it. ;)

Good luck!

Last night I took it at 11:45pm, after thinking I had to take it at 11pm to be "on time." So tonight do I start my regular routine over again at 12 midnight every night? Is that right?
