Had unprotected sex..skip 1 birthcontrol pill so u took a plan b and started taken my birth control like i should..should i be okay?

Yes: Sounds like you did exactly the right thing. Missing 1 birth control pill typically doesn't increase your risk of ovulation by too much, but you took the plan b, and then started back on your birth control, so you did everything possible. Likely you'll be fine. In a few more weeks, you'll know for sure. Can consider an alarm on phone to remind you to take pill, or they have apps too!
