I just started taking the pill and I
finished my first pack, minus the
placebos. I had forgotten to take 2 pills
in a row, one dark blue and one light
blue. So I continued to take a pill until
this sunday... Where I started a new pack
since I missed 2 pills in a row. My
boyfriend and I are talking about "leaving
it in" this weekend... Is that safe?
Considering these conditions.

By this weekend might be okay, though
honestly he should wear a condom. Birth
control pills have to be taken regularily
for atleast 7 days before you can fully
trust them.

It will be 7 days of consist pill taking
from the new pack, is that ok? Why does
the doctor tell you wait a month to finish
the whole pack? Just to be safer?

Yes probably just for 100% assurance. In
the pamphlet with your birth control pills
it should say how long you should wait
before having sex without other methods of
protection. Example i'm on alesse and it
says wait atleast 7 days.
