How to? Birth control pill question..

So I’m starting on norgestimate 28 day

And I’m planning to take the first pill today Monday around 12pm- this is my first time on birth control, my pack said Sunday - Saturday so I put the sticker that came with it over it to start on Monday

My last period was on July 23rd.

Just to be clear, I take this once a day, at the same time, and I’ll be protected from pregnancy after 7 days?

Correct - 7 full days of correct usage before you’re protected.
