I have wondered this myself, so I asked
the nurse practicioner and she said that
in research it hasnt shown any harmful
affects on the baby, but it was still
uncertain. I would definately not take bc
pills if I thought I was preggo, just as a
precausion.

No, it wouldn't hurt the baby/fetus if you
were still taking birth control during the
first few weeks of pregnancy. If you
think you might be pregnant, the birth
control pill will not have an effect on
the accuracy of the home pregnancy test
either.
