Q: Pregnant or Plan B Side Effects?

I had unprotected sex the Thursday of my period week. I am on birth control but missed two/three individual days (not in a row) in my pack. Two of them were my last two days of active pills I took plan B about 20 hours after having sex. A week later I am feeling nauseous and lightheaded and slight cramping. I have started taking my birth control this week again starting Sunday and it is Friday. Is this a common symptom, or could I be pregnant? What is the earliest I could take a pregnancy test? Do I have to wait three more weeks to take a test?

All very common side effects of plan B. Pregnancy is a possibility, but its pretty slim.

If you are worried about pregnancy, then you can test two weeks after sex to test.
