Counted Wrong and Then Counted Right

B”H
Shalom
Shavua tov
At the night, today, i realized that i counted after the prayer of Motzae Shabat: 11 days of the omer, instead of the correct 8 days!. During the night i counted again without saying any blessing and i said: “today it’s 8 days, that is a week and one day of the omer”. May i tomorrow, continue counting with a blessing?
All the best

Answer:

Yes, you can continue as usual (counting with a blessing), since you counted correctly in the end.

In fact, you should have counted again with a blessing, since your first counting certainly didn’t count, and because you remembered to do so during the night.

Best wishes.
