Missed mini-pill!

Hi everyone

this might be long, so I’ll try my best to keep it concise. I started the progesterone only (destogel) pill in may, and have stopped using condoms as a result of this. I missed my pill on July 25 as I had forgotten, and we didn’t use protection on the 25th (before I forgot to take it) and on the 26th. I have taken the rest of my pills as normal, but im scared that I could be pregnant. I know it’s too early to have an accurate read on a test, so im likely overthinking things, but I’ve been feeling nauseous and been incredibly bloated- to the point I look like im pregnant where my abdomen is so bloated! It’s starting to get my down, and I don’t want to worry my bf with this until we know for sure. I plan to test on Thursday as this will be 3 weeks from potential conception/when I missed my pill.

am I being paranoid? Everything im reading online says I should have taken emergency contraceptives and used protection for two days after missing the pill but I didn’t realise I’d missed it until I went to take my pill the next day!
