Missed Pill

Hi, I went home this weekend for the holiday and forgot to bring my BC--I'm on estrostep. I missed Saturday and Sunday. Now I'm back and have my pills and am wondering what to do. Do I take the two missed pills now and take tomorrow's as regular? (I lost the info pamphlet for the pills.)

Help!

Thanks!

Update: I'm on the Sunday-Start way and it was the Saturday pill of Week 1 and the Sunday pill of Week 2. I just took both of those pills but now I'm confused about what to do tomorrow. On the website for Estrostep it said "Take TWO tablets as soon as remembered and take TWO pills the next day". So.....what does that mean??

Don't forget to use backup!! Since you've missed two pills, you definitely have to use backup protection until you've taken seven pills on time.

Good luck! It happens to the best of us....
