It is difficult to say. You have been taking your birth control pills irregularly though you have been making up for the missed doses. All you can do now, is wait. If your period is late by at least one week, take a home pregnancy test.

If you are having trouble remembering to take birth control pills, consider another method such as the depo-provera shot or an IUD.
