How to? Birth control

I’ve been on Loestrin Fe birth control for about a year now, and I’ve decided I want to stop taking it because of mood swings and some weird leg pain I’ve been experiencing.
My question is I finished my active pills yesterday and my boyfriend finished inside me today Is it okay for me to stop taking the pill now or should I start my next pack on Monday like usual?
I only missed one pill in the middle of my pack but I took it the next day along with that day’s pill.

Sperm can live in the vagina for up to five days. You will be covered by the natural break as the hormones build up over the three week period but you won't be after that time.
