For example she was taking Thursday's pill on Friday, how in the hell this happened I couldn't tell you. Now we had sex unprotected like we always do this month, is there a strong chance that she could get pregnant from this mistake she made. Her period is 1 to 2 days late, is this from taking the pills out of sequence also she has been under alot of stress. By the way the pills that she was off sequence with were the active 3 week pills.

usually it's ok to miss one day if you doub;e up the dose the next day, but you're not meant to tdouble up more often than that. she could be late from stress or from the way the hormones in the pill regulate her cycle. your best bet involves telling a doctor and getting an early pregnancy test (a blood test) from a doctor (not one in a package) and finding out if the late period means there is a pregnancy.
