I agree with Lil. Bleeding when you stop taking the pill for your 7 day break is known as 'withdrawal bleeding' so missing two pills can be enough to trigger that, in your case. I'm sure things will return to normal when you resume taking your next packet, but if not, see a doc. If nothing else, at least you know you're not pregnant and don't worry about the actual blood loss - you lose a heck of a lot more after childbirth!

I've never known a pill that you have to take two off if you forget. The advice every pill I've ever been on is to take the next one as soon as you remember and to use an alternative method of contraception (i.e. condom) for the following 7 days.
