I would get a second opinion from another OB if you want a baby. Using birth control to regulate your cycle when you want to get pregnant does NOT get to the root of why your cycles aren't regular. Most birth control pills won't harm the baby if you are pregnant but your dr should have done a blood test not a urine test.

The symptoms you're feeling could be from the hormones in the birth control pills. Also, your period should start when you're done with the pills for that month, not based on your last period.
I agree with the above that if you're concerned about pregnancy, you should schedule a blood test. Good luck!
