Has anyone ever got pregnant whilst on the pill?

I would just be interested to know whether anyone (or someone you know) has ever got pregnant on the pill? And if so did you have bleeding (maybe misinterpreted as a period) in the early stages of the pregnancy?

Sorry i completely skipped reading the bleeding part! I actually did bleed, it wasnt too heavy, i did have to wear a pad/panty liner tho just because i wasnt sure if it was gonna stop or whatnot. But it only lasted about 2 days.

All the females on my mum's side of the family seem to be incredibly fertile, and my grandma got pregnant with my mum whilst on the pill. I'm on the pill myself but have been having pregnancy symptoms that are very different from my usual pms ones. I appear to have come on my period today bang on time, but it started like brown spotting most of the day until any actual blood came this evening. This is incredibly unusual from my normal periods which always come bang heavy out of nowhere. I've read on the internet that women who do get pregnant on the pill can be prone to bleeding (a bit like a period) in the early stages of pregnancy. This is why i'm curious to know if anyone has had any bleeding themselves. Thanks for your responses :)
