Q: Birth control: continue or stop?

I'm currently on Ortho Tricyclen Lo, and have just ended the second week of the pill pack. However, during the 2nd week, I have missed four pills in a row. I didn't experience any type of withdrawal bleeding like I normally do...like after the 3 days of taking the inactive pills. Is this okay to not have withdrawal bleeding since I did have withdrawal bleeding after I stopped my last pack? I also did miss one or two pills in week one of this pack as well. Should I be fine to continue the pills or should I take a pregnancy test due to the lack of withdrawal bleeding?
