Get a pregnancy test if/when you miss a
period.

You can absolutely get pregnant on the
pill. Especially if you've only been on
it "like not even a month." .I was taking
mine religiously for years but got
pregnant 2x on bcp's when .I was also on
antibiotics for extended periods of
time.
When you miss your period, take a test or
get a blood test from your ob.

If you've taken your pill every day at
around the same time, you shouldn't be
pregnant. Like queen bee said, it does
happen, but only if you miss a pill here
and there or if you're taking antibiotics,
because some of them decrease the
effectiveness of the pill. Feel free to
take a pregnancy test around the time you
expect to get your period, but i'm almost
sure it'll be negative. (i'm on the pill
and manage to convince myself almost every
month that I might be pregnant!) since
you've been on the pill for only a month,
you might still be experiencing side
effects from it... It also might just be
happening for a number of reasons
unrelated to pregnancy.

The syptoms you are experiencing might be
your body's reaction to the birth control
pills. Your body might be having a
time adjusting to the estrogen levels in
the pills. If you don't miss a period
and the symptoms continue, talk to your
doctor. She might have to adjust the
dosage for you or offer you a different
type of birth control.
