Took my bcp 45 minutes late?

I wasn't certain which board to post this in, so sorry if this isn't the best place :)

 I took my birth control about 45 minutes after I usually do. Is this something we should worry about?

I know 45 minutes seems trivial, but we really don't want kids anytime soon. Thanks!

    it was only 45 minutes. you're fine. but if you're that worried, just use condoms this cycle.
  • You are totally fine.  Even for a couple trying to get KU, there is only a 25% chance of getting pregant each cycle.  I have been timing sex around ovulation by charting for 3 months and am not pregnant.  You are fine.

  • you'll be fine. they say you're suppose to take it on the dot every day. I usually take mine at 6pm but it goes anywhere from 4pm to 11pm. it's been like that for almost 3 years now.. no kids yet!
  • Congrats, you're now pregnant with triplets. H&H 9 months.

    The more important question is are you on a combo or progestin only pill?

  • I am on a combo pill and sometimes by accident I do that, too. We don't have any kids.

    No, no, no!! That's not how it works, we need to know how they usually have sex. If it's doggy style, it's a litter of puppies. Multiples only occur if you have a hairstyle like Kate Gosselin when you have sex.


  • Should be fine.  If you have any questions, I would look at the pamplet that came with your BCP.  The thing is to remember to take the pill everyday, that is what causes the slip ups for people.

  • It's a combined pill, and the information sheet doesn't give anything specific on how much leeway I have, it just says, "the correct way to take the pill is the same time every day." Most of what I've read elsewhere says we should be fine, but I just want to be cautious.

     

    Nice jokes on the puppies and triplets, lol.

  • What if you have a hairstyle like Kate Gosselin AFTER you have sex??
  • Not a problem.

    as long as you take it for the day your fine. :)

  • we always learned that if you take it within an hour of when you usually do, it's totally fine.
