    Could I be pregnant or could it be my birth control?
    I stopped taking my birth control the 15th or 16th of February, but I took it most the time when on it. I had unprotected sex the 17th through the 20th, he ejaculated in me each time, and that was multiple times. I didn't go back on my birth control because I was seeing if I'd get my period and I haven't. But I've had the cramps like I was getting it, my nipples hurt and my boobs hurt sometimes too. I am tired a lot too. Also, every time I eat I feel like I'm going to be sick, I don't know if I could be sick or not. I have yet to get a period.. so I don't know. But people said my chances of being pregnant are slim because I was on BC(loestrin 24), but I know there's always a chance. Do you think the chances are high? Or do you think everything I'm having is because of me stopping my birth control? (Also, when on the BC my periods did come, they didn't last long, if I didn't get them I would spot though.)

    I believe there is a chance, it appears from your actions you are trying to get pregnant,
    No one can tell you how or what percent of a chance, there is just a chance, there is a chance each time you have sex.

    The chances are much higher than if you had stayed on the pill, and lower than not using the pill earlier at all.

    Well it sounds to me like you are in fact pregnant. The first signs of pregnancy are a lot like pms symptoms. I hope its what you wanted. Good luck.

    When was your period due? If you stopped taking the birth control, even for a few days you can become pregnant. But these are also symptoms of your body trying to return to a normal cycle after stopping birth control. If you are more than a week or two over due, take a test. If it is negative, contact your doctor and have her test you. It really could go either way here. You would probably not be feeling any pregnancy symptoms at this point though.
