I forgot to take my pill and I am worried that I could be pregnet. I want to know if it possible that I could be pregnet. Here are the details.

I started my new pack on the 26th of November (Thursday). I take them around 11 at night every night. I forgot to take it Friday the 4th (my husband and I did not have sex that day or the day before). The next morning (Saturday the 5th) my husband and I had sex and I remembered that I forgot to take my pill so I took it that Morning. My husband and I had sex again later that day and that night (still Saturday) I forgot to take the pill again. I woke up Sunday and took the pill in the morning and then again sunday and monday night. There was no sex on Sunday or Monday.

Today I started bleeding a little but it is sort of brown.

Please help

You should be just fine. The problems are when you skipped the pill for longer than 48 hours. From what you are describing, you did not. You also took every pill and did not skip any.

The bleeding is probably because of the hormone yoyo you put your body through by taking it at odd times.

Take care!
