Q: missed 5 pills from first week

I completely forgot to buy a new pack of Yasminelle, and couldn't get to a pharmacy, so I missed the first 5 pills from the pack. I got to a pharmacy yesterday and took 2 pills, and then took 2 again today (got a bit confused). I am not having sex for another 3 weeks, and there is no way I could be pregnant as I haven't had sex for 4 weeks. If I discard the 4 missed pills and just continue as normal, can I still have my 7 day break as normal after taking 16 pills instead of 21? I intend to have unprotected sex in about 20 days when I next see my boyfriend.
Please help!!
