Because you were still protected from your previous pack, I don't think you have too much to worry about. Stopping them for a week is not the same as missing your pills for a month. If you had missed your pills for over two weeks, then I would suggest using a backup method of birth control for the first two weeks of your pill. But if you only missed a week and had been on your pills for a week before having sex, then you should be protected.
