Getting pregnant after quitting the pill?

So I went out of town for the holidays. When I got to where I was staying I ran out of the pill the first day I was there. Over the two weeks being there without being on the pill we had unprotected sex 4 or 5 times.

How soon can you get pregnant after not taking the pill?

I was supposed to have my period last week, it never came. I took a test on Saturday, but it was negative.

Does it take awhile for my period to get back on track after not taking the pill?

I haven't taken BC since I ran out. I want to make sure I'm not pregnant before taking it again.

Thanks :)

It is very common to to not get a period for a while after stopping the pill. I quit mine in October and it took 2 months for me to get a period. I am now almost 7 weeks pregnant :). Just gotta be patient :)
