[Birth Control] Pill #s 13, 14, 15 taken late, then missed a pill in 1st wk of next pack...HELP!

I searched for this in archives but I couldn't find a situation similar to it. I have been on Ortho-Tricyclen for 2 years, and then switched to OrthoCyclen hand have been on that for almost 7 months. I'm a sunday starter.

I've NEVER screwed up my pack until last month when I went away for a weekend and forgot to take my pill pack with me.

I ended up missing pill 13, 14, and 15 (fri sat sun). When I returned on monday I took pills 13 and 14, the next day I took pills 15 and 16, and the third day I took pills 17 and 18 and I was all caught up. I ended the pack and got my period like normal instead of starting a new pack as recommended. I started the new pack on sunday, but I had sex on the second day. A day or two later, I must have missed a pill because when I took pill 8 (I'm a sunday starter so this is 1st day of week 2) I noticed that saturdays pill was still there, but I KNOW I took a pill saturday. My question is this: Could I be pregnant if I missed tuesday's or wednesday's pill after having sex on monday (day 2 of my pack) and after having screwed up the previous pack? Help! Also, I had sex yesterday as well, and that might not be a FULL week from when I skipped a pill. I'm very confused because this has never happened to me before.

Thank you for any replies I might recieve. Adria
