pregnant and birth control...

Question:
I am not currently pregnant, but I was wondering about something.

I hear stories of women who get pregnant while on birth control, and I was wondering... If you're still taking your birth control pills, what would be the effects of that? Like, would there still be signs of pregnancy? Will the fetus be affected because of the birth control pills that are still being taken?

Just wondering, because it's amazing how many women DO get pregnant while on birth control (although I also wonder how much of that is improper use of b.c., such as missing pills, etc) and I just wanted to know what to look out for should I ever be in that .01%.
