Dear Readers:
I think my life experience is what qualifies me to write this column. I made every mistake imaginable. But have learned from them. Most important I still remember what it was like to be 12, 13, 14, 15, and so on. Currently I am a single mom, I have two wonderful boys. One in college. We are all happy emotionally. We love life, and know that you can too. I try to be the kind of parent that understands. I know that I can help you to understand where you parents are coming from, and help you get over the difficulties of being young. You can even have your parents write to me and I will help them to get over their fears and at least respect you and your feelings. I have been married and divorced twice, so I have experience in that field also. But now I own my own home, and my own business and am successful. Lots of luck to you! Hope to hear from you.

Been taking the pill for a month - perfect no problems.
On Sunday had sex (took my pill on sunday morning at 8)
Took My Pill Again At 8 On Monday - Which Was Fine, It Was Also THE LAST pill in the pack
Then had sex on tuesday morning BEFORE the time I would of taken my pill - but didnt take my pill because I finished the packet.
Am I pregnant?
I have to wait 7 days - should get my period then - if I dont should I go to the doctors? (link)

WEll, you have only been on the pill for one month. Usually you have to be on it for a while to be sure that this dose will be right for you. Birth control pills come in different strengths. And wow, it has been so long since I have been on the pill, maybe doctors have figured out a way to ensure that you are on the right strength right away. If that is the case, then as long as you took your pill every morning at the same time, prior to that sexual encounter that occurred one morning before you took the pill, you should be OK. But only time will tell. As I said in the past, one month was not enough time to determine success with the pill.
I hope this helps. If you are lucky enough not to be pregnant, I think you should be more careful and use additional protection until you are sure that this dose is the correct one for you. One way that you can tell, is that you will have blood spotting during the month, between periods. If that occurs, it means that this pill is not strong enough for you.
Good luck dear.
