You did the right thing by doubling up on the dose once you realized that you had missed a dose. I think there is a very low risk of pregnancy.
You are at high risk if you miss seven consecutive days of active, hormone containing pills.
Lindsey, if you find that you are having trouble remembering to take your birth control pills consistently, talk with your gynecologist about other options, such as an IUD or Depo-Provera injections.
