Thanks for your question. It is unlikely that pregnancy has occurred as you followed the proper procedure when missing a birth control pill. If missed for one day, taking two pills the next day usually provides for pregnancy protection. No birth control pill is 100% effective, and pregnancy can begin any time sexual relations and exposure to sperm occur. Home pregnancy tests usually are positive approximately ten days after conception. There is a low false negative rate with urine pregnancy tests so if your test is negative 12 days from intercourse, you are probably not pregnant.
I hope this answer helps but I am available for follow up.
