I was not able to pick up my birth control pack until sunday night, i usually take it in the mornings so i took 2 at the same time, bad idea?

Right on track: This is exactly what you should do in this situation. It is important to take your pills without missing them as much as possible. If you find that it is a problem to remember your pills you may want to consider other forms of birth control that do not require daily dosing.
