Hello Anon

Thank you for writing!

This is happening because your cycle is a little irregular because you made a mistake with your pills.It's a normal side effect. Continue your pill regime as usual - your cycle will sort itself out very quickly. Use a condom for the first 7 days of active pills as a precaution, then you'll be fine.
Best,
Susan
