When missing a day, taking double dose another day does not make up for the missed day. Instead it can mess up your system as you're getting too much of the hormones all at once.
Since its ovulation, and not a period that puts you at risk of becoming pregnant if not taking protection, it's hard to give you an answer. I do not know if you were having sex right after the baby or if the facts you gave me are all correct. technically, if taking the pill for a week before having sex, its that amount of time that is needed for the hormones that protect you from becoming pregnant to build up enough to do the protecting. So once missed day shouldn't hurt. But if you miss 2 or more in a row or forget every other day or every 3 days, then you can no longer trust that the pill can protect you. I do not know of a contraceptive drink but maybe that's somthing new on the market. So if you've been drinking something thats supposed to work like the pill, better ask your Dr. about it to get the correct story. Either way, I think you should call your Dr. tell him/her your story and especially the part of taking 2 pills at once because that just might be a reason for your period being delayed. This same thing happens to some women, getting their normal period cycle messed up , when they take the morning after pill, also known as plan B if they weren't on any kind of contraceptive. These emergency coverage pills have a way higher dose of everything in them and that often messes up the cycle. A pregnancy test can let you know if pregnant or not. But also just as important, you need to ask for info from your doctor or pharmacist on how your actual contraceptive pill works, how it protects you, any brochures or info you can keep handy at home so you have the info in case you forget because how to take it, what not to do, under which circumstances the pill may be ineffective (like if you're taking an antibiotic for something short term) etc..... You need to have all the necessary updated info on what you are taking or you could run into real trouble and end up pregnant.
