the pill/period question

I'm on microgynon 30. iv missed around 5 pills this month (I know, I'm rubbish?!) when I missed the pills I didn't take them late or anything, just left them in the packet. I'm on my 7 day break about to start my pill again tomorrow and I haven't had a period which is really weird for me. I took a pregnancy test earlier today that was negative. should I just start taking the pill again like normal tomorrow? I'm paranoid because I remember the doctor telling me it could really harm a baby if you carry on taking it when pregnant. I know iv done a test but what if it was too early to detect it or something? getting a bit paranoid really. iv read the pill instructions and it says if you don't have a bleed and you've taken all the pills correctly there's nothing to worry about but if you haven't, take a test just to be sure. so iv done that, is that all now? thanks x

A lot of people accidentally take the pill while pregnant, and the babies are fine! As far as I know it's not harmful at all
