Worried I could be pregnant…

I’m 5 and a half months pp and despite EBF initially, I’ve had small periods each month. I had the injection for contraception in the hospital, then started taking the mini pill desegestral. We’ve had sex once less than 2 weeks ago, I’d missed taking the pill over the weekend, started again on the Monday and we had sex on the Friday. My partner pulled out but as we know, this is not an effective form of contraception. I’m used to the combined pill so was taking it like I would that and not religiously at the same time each day. On the packet it says to take within 12 hours each day (we guessed I probably was doing this) and if starting from scratch it’s effective after 7 days. I now haven’t had a period this month, which I know can be common with the mini pill but I’m really panicking as it’s clearly less effective than the pills I’m used to (Yasmin). Does anyone have experience with desegestral and know if it’s that easy to get pregnant on it? I’m also still combi-feeding but not sure that means anything considering I was getting a small period anyway

Take a test?

@FleaBeeBob planning to do this tomorrow when I’m able to get hold of one, but I’m not sure if it would be too early to show anything
