    Oops! 8 day placebo break... How dangerous? [/B]

    Hi all!
    I have a doubt about the placebo week. I admit I do a sloppy work taking my pills, usually forget to take them at the same time everyday, sometimes even miss one so I take two together... But I have been taking them that way for years and never got pregnant.
    Well, this time, I took my 7 day placebo break and the day I was supossed to start the next pack, well, I forgot.
    So basically, instead of 7, I took an 8 day break.
    What are the chances that I got pregnant for just missing that one extra day? I did have sex, I'm newly married so we're in the "sex pretty much everyday" phase :love:.

    Thank you for your input! ​
