Stopped taking BC and lost track of period cycle

Hi, I recently stopped taking BC, just a week over a month ago and I have had unprotected sex since then. The problem I am having is that I can't remember when I am supposed to get my period (since I don't have that handy little package anymore to remind me) and I don't know if I am late and if I am I don't know how late. I am going to take a pregnancy test tomorrow, however there was a point when I was ON the BC pill that I would miss only one pill in a month and skip a whole period from that. I was wondering if maybe the transition this past month from having been on BC pills to not being on them caused me to skip a period.

Anyone have an idea?

After a BC period. ovulation can resume very very quickly, so there is chance you are pregnant. You had unprotected sex, so that is especially worrisome.

There is no exact way to know when your period is coming, because you do not know when you ovulated. :/
