Thank you for sharing your question with the EmpowHER community! You are doing the right thing by planning to take your pill at the exact time every day and it's good that you are thinking ahead!
There's always a risk of getting pregnant even when taking the pill perfectly! Just keep that in mind.
Doubling up can have an effect on your cycle, even ever so slightly. The tenderness in your breasts can be normal.
I advise you to use a back up form of birth control for the next 7 days as a precaution on getting pregnant. Traveling, moving and adjusting to new surroundings will definitely put stress on your body and your menstrual cycle, so just keep that in mind. Try to get plenty of rest, eat right and use a back up method until you get in a new routine.
Best wishes on your impending move and be sure to stay in touch with us here at EmpowHER.
