Thank you for sharing your question with the EmpowHER community.
Since you are currently taking birth control pills and your boyfriend is also using a condom you are very well protected against pregnancy. Even when you missed on pill, you had protected sex with a condom which was very smart.
Condoms are safe to use to prevent STDs and pregnancy, but birth control pills protect you better, because condoms can break. With regards to it taking longer to get pregnant after being on birth control, each woman is different.
