I can appreciate how lack of sleep affects your behavior. I hate to add to any stress, but yes there was a risk for becoming pregnant.
When and how many active pills missed determines the risk for ovulating and becoming pregnant if you have intercourse.
Missing two active pills added to a week of inactive pills brings the total to seven days without any synthetic hormones to keep levels constant and prevent ovulation.
Reach out to your gynecologist about this and ask if and when you should test and should you just continue taking the active pills.
