It sounds like you are taking
It sounds like you are taking oral contraceptives that come in a numbered pill pack. Most pack contain 28 pills. Some oral contraceptive are monophasic, which means that all pills have the same chemicals in them. Other packs are biphasic, which means there are two types of pills. And some are even triphasic which means, (you guessed it) there are three different types of pills in the pack. This is not even counting the sugar pills which are taken the last 7 days of you cycle. So, not knowing which brand or type of pill you are on I can't tell you the consequences of mixing them up like that. Your best bet would be to contact your pharmacist for detailed instructions.
Best of luck,
