the pill & antibiotics

I started a new pack of birth control about 2 weeks ago(on May 27th). The same day I started the new pack, I had unprotected sex. I've been taking my pill every day since, at the same time, as I usually do.
This Tuesday(June 5th) I started an antibiotic. I know that I should use a back up method when I'm on the antibiotic.I haven't had ANY sex since I started the antibiotics.
I am wondering if it is at all possible that I could get pregnant from having sex over a week before I started the antibiotics? I haven't had any spotting, but I've been peeing more often & I have A LOT of gas! Otherwise I feel fine-I'm on the antibiotic for a laceration on my face.
