I had my last period 30 days ago, I have been on yasmin for 2 months now, I missed about 3 pills this last month and I usually dont take them at the same time each night. I know I missed around the middle of the pack and i have been having frequent unprotected sex. For about the past week or week and a half i have had period cramps and very light spotting and the past day or two i have been peeing so much and i am so nauses. i know that sometimes these can be symptoms from the pill, but im scared that i might be pregnant. i have 1 pill left in this pack, im going to wait to see if i get my period and if not ill take an hpt. but could someone please tell my the chance of me being pregnant? or if this has happened to someone else? are these normal symptoms for the yasmin birth control pill? thanks

Unfortunately, you're right- these symptoms could be due to the missed pills. I will say that it is unlikely you are having pregnancy symptoms this early. However, it is possible that you are pregnant- and it's also possible that you aren't.

No one can tell you the actual chances, you'll just have to wait and take a test if your period is late.

agreed with georgia..and maybe since you seem to be having a problem with taking the pills at the correct time every day(which is needed for it to be most effective) you should look into another form of birth control..maybe the shot or an IUD...or even the patch, missing pills greatly increases your chances! set an alarm!
