Yes, there was a risk for becoming pregnant. Birth control pills prevent pregnancy by preventing ovulation. That is achieved by keeping hormone levels constant. That is why it is so important to take an active pill at the same time each day. When you miss a pill, it is advised to take that pill and the daily pill as soon as you realize you missed a dose, and to use backup protection.
