Possibly pregnant on BCC?

For the past 4 days I've had a very upset stomach, where I can't handle most foods and they cause me a lot of pain. I assumed I had a stomach bug, until today when I started bleeding.

This is incredibly abnormal for me, as I'm currently on the mini pill, which I don't normally have periods when using.

I only went on this pill, after being off for six months or so, three weeks ago. I had unprotected sex within the first week of being back on the pill, and so am now worried that this bleeding is not a period, and might be implantation bleeding, and that my constant nausea might be morning sickness.

Can anyone help me out on this? Primarily, could I be experiencing morning sickness this early? And how would I know the difference between implantation bleeding and a period?

If I am pregnant, could being on the pill damage a baby?

Thanks

When you're 1st starting the pill, its side effects have a tendency to mimic PMS or even pregnancy symptoms. Yes, you've been on them b4, but you haven't for 6 months, which means that your body needs to readjust. BUT b/c you had unprotected sex w/in the 1st week, you could've been more @ risk to become pg (IF you started the pack the Sunday after AF began). AF should be due in a week or so; so you should test then.
