So I'm taking birth control, and I started taking my pills Monday November 27, and I missed Friday December 1 and Saturday December 2 but Sunday December 3 I took the one for Sunday and the other two I had missed, and then today Monday December 4 I took my pill about 4 or 5 hours off. And later tonight I had unprotected sex and my bf came inside of me. Should I get a plan b pill?

Most likely, an emergency contraceptive pill can't do more than your pill is already doing, given it was less than three days missed and you did make the pills up properly.

So, I would say this is a matter of what you want and would feel best doing.

For the future, do you need any help talking to partners about Condom use? As well, do you have a cell phone with an alarm function? If so, sounds like having one set every day just for taking your pill might help you out.
