Does anyone know what could happen to someone who IS on birth control, but gets pregnant.... and doesn't know it yet.. and keeps taking their birth control?? Could it make them have their period while being pregnant?? Because I'm on birth control and the last time I had sex without protection was 8 days ago from today. (today being the 25th of july, it was the 17th) On the 18th, we did it again but then finished with protection. The next day, Wednesday the 19th, I started late at night when I usually start in the morning. But since Saturday the 22nd, I stopped birth control because I ran out of refills. But since then, I feel like I'm gaining weight and when I lay down flat, i touch my stomach like where my bladder is and it feels hard and I've been getting nauseated and headaches and I'm just not sure. Does anyone know what could happen if someone is pregnant and they don't know it, but still takes birth control? Can it make them have their period? Can it hurt the baby if they ARE pregnant? I need help A.S.A.P! Thank you all.

Hi, i fell pregnant with my first daughter while taking the pill and she was born absolutely fine, she is a very healthy seven year old. I wouldn't worry too much and i would go and see your doctor. Hope everythings fine
