i had my period the week or so before before i had sex
i am on the pill, but forgot to take it the next day
i got the morning after pill 2 days after
i had an extremeley light spot about 3 days after, but isnt that too soon for implantation?
i was faint for the first few days and felt a lil bit nautious

Spotting and nausea can be due to taking Plan B. Plan B is an increased dosage of hormones, so ontop of the hormones with your birth control it may make you feel ill.

Bloating and breast tenderness is also due to birth control. It tricks your body into thinking you're pregnant.

If you really were pregnant, symptoms would probably not be showing up a week and a half after having sex, and you properly protected yourself so I wouldn't worry too much.

If you are still worried and/or your period doesn't come, you can always take a test as long as it's at least 2 weeks after you had sex.
