i was late taking my birth control pills. i usually take them at 430pm but i took them at 7. i know you can take it around the same time give or take 2 hours, so i guess i was 30 minutes late? i looked at the instruction sheet and it didnt say that i would need to take backup birth control, but is there still a chance that i could get pregnant?

my gf took hers 2 hours late do you think that is cool? i know her friend missed a whole day one time and then took 2 the next day and she was fine so im not too worried.

The recommendation is that you take it at the same time to maintain a constant level of hormones. I relaly doubt that missing the pill by a few hours or 1/2 day is going to create a major disruption and cause the girl to ovulate. You increase the risk, but I doubt it's as significant as it's made out to be. I don't have any data to back this up, but it seems logical.
