My schedule has been flipped upside down and around this week (summer finals), and as a result, I have slacked off taking my pill at the correct time.

I usually take my pill at 4pm. I'm in my last week of active pills (tomorrow is the last pill before I start my placebos).

Tuesday I took my pill at 7pm. Wednesday I took it about 4:30pm. Thursday (today), I took it at 6:30pm.

I had sex on two of these three days. Can I safely put my mind at rest that I am still probably protected? Just getting a little worried..

You're still very much protected. You weren't more than 3 hours late, and while that's not considered "perfect use" it's unlikely that being 3 hours late would stimulate ovulation.

I'm usually really strict with taking my pill.. I just don't seem to have a great concept of time this week. I need to get one of those pill packs with the alarm function.

Thank you, ladies. You are wonderful. :)
