this past sunday, the 1st, i started a new pack of othro-tri. i usually take my pills at 6:20am EVERY morning, and i mean every single morning for the past 3 months (since i started the pill) i've been exact on the time ive taken it. but, this past monday the 2nd, i went on a retreat. on monday i took the pill at my normal time, 620am. on tuesday i took it a little later, 745am, and same for wednesday. thursday i took it at my normal time, 620am. on friday i took it at 7am. however, on saturday, i shoulve taken my last white pill, but i acidentally took the first light blue pill, at 7am. then i took the last white pill on sunday, at 620 am, then on monday i start with taking the rest of the light blue pills. since i mixed up the order of the last white pill and the first light blue pill, did i mess things up? i see my boyfriend this friday, the 13th, and im just wondering if we will be completely protected? since the mess up on the pills times and acidentally taking the wrong pill at the wrong time, did i mess things up? HELP!
