It's ok to be scared, but don't be too worried yet. There are a lot of reasons you could be tired, and you could have a stomach bug.

When was your last period? When did you have unprotected sex?

Well dont get to worried over it till you take a test. of course you may be scared and i dont blame you. Know that birth control is just to help you not get pregnant, not just to stop everything completely. and also if you do miss a few pills it can mess up the "cycle"it tries to keep. (I didnt mean to offend you by saying that and if i did im sorry). And realize there is more to being pregnant then nauseous and sleepy. But like swinga said, you could just be sick and you should just wait till you take a test. If your that worried you can use the First response tests. they are said to detect pregnancy earlier then others. normally you have to be 6 weeks along to get an accurate test reading from a "pee stick"(you can get a positive reading at 4 but its not likely). Going to a doctor or a pregnancy center ( I dont recommend Planned Parenthood because they dont take kindly to the expectant mothers who arent married and underage) will get you can get results sooner. I hope this helps. Best of luck to you on whatever you're hoping for
