Yes, anytime you miss 2 or more pills, especially in-a-row, you have an increased chance of pregnancy. It does not matter what week of active (hormone-containing) pills you are in that you miss; the more pills you miss and the more times you have unprotected sex, the more chances you have to become pregnant.

Sperm can live inside your body for 3-5 days, and forgetting to take pills afterward can theoretically be enough time for your body to begin ovulation. It is not as likely, but there is a possibility.

Did you make up the missed pills as directed?
