oops! missed my pill this morning after sex last night!

[carries]

I have 2 DD, one nearly 4 and a baby at 14 months. Not planning a third at the moment, but fighting the hormones that are demanding a 3 rd pregnancy. Anyway, on the Pill, forgot to take it last night but DH and I got intimate last night (that's why I forgot ). Took pill at tea timeover 12 hours after usual time. What should I do? Do I keep taking Pill as normal, what are my chances of falling pregnant? The weird thing is, even though we don't want a third child at the moment, neither of us were upset about my forgetfulness! I was nearly laughing or crying, not sure which!

Anyway as you can tell am a bit ditsy at the moment, but would welcome advice or comments!

well, I haven't taken the pill for nearly 9 months and I'm not preg

check instructions ( I am assuming you are on a combined pill not a mini pill)- from memory you need to keep taking rest of pack and start a new one if got less than 7 days to go of your current pack. And use precautions for next 7 days or so.

Not sure re pregnancy chances -think pill can also operate to stop implantation (but clearly this is not perfect) but rate of efficiency reduced from 99% plus to something somewhat less. Mind you taking it pretty quickly within 12 hours window whilst not ideal.

And took pill for 14 years and had similar couple of accidents and never fell pregnant but not sure where that leaves the stats.

And good you weren't stressed about it -if worse comes of it maybe this little accident will be a happy one

If by some chance will conceive will continuing to take the Pill affect the embryo?

you should be fine as it takes awhile for the hormone to disipate.
