Q: While on vacation last week, I kept forgetting to take my pills on time & I think I kept forgetting because of the time difference. Anyway, my husband and I didn’t do anything while on vacation because he wanted to respect his dad’s house, where we were staying. So is it possible that I could have gotten pregnant by taking my pills late every day?

A: I am no Gyn, but I have been down your road…I think that if you continued to take them, and were just late taking them, you should be okay. I’ve even had my doctor tell me that I could miss 1 day without taking them, maybe even two, but I would never chance it. Good Luck!
