Its really not that it is smaller, they
just contain one hormone, (progestin)
instead of estrogen and progestin. They
are a little less effective than the
normal pill but are good for women who
cant take both hormones. Hope that helps!

good question. I would imagine that it
works like the reg pill and you obviously
you can't be on the pill when your preg.
So you have to let your body slowly adjust
to being on the pill again. The pill,
mini or not, should start working fully
again in a month or two. I would suggest
using a backup method til then or asking
your doctor. :d
