Glad to hear that you doubled-up, but (as you now know), it is also equally important to use a back-up method for 7 days, as the pill is less effective when missed (especially if you 2 pills in-a-row). If you miss more than 3 pills in-a-row, be sure to read the instructions, as most say to throw away the pack and start a new one on a certain day.
You may want to take a home pregnancy test if your period does not begin in the next few days. Good luck!
