birth control randomly causing side effects after being on it for months without any?

why is this happening?!  i noticed about a week ago (around the 70th day of my pills, i take 84 per cycle) that i started feeling a lot more emotional and moody, and i've been extremely bloated, which is weird because yasmine is meant to prevent water retention and has always helped me with that in the past.  I have been having ridiculous cravings that are really intense, i've been really crampy pretty much everyday, which until now hasnt been a problem since my laparoscopy in march, and yesterday and today i've been getting random spells of nausea.  and my boobs hurt and feel pretty swollen.  this is so weird i havent had any side effects like this really at all since i've been on yasmine (went on it in february).  What could this possibly be caused by?

could it just be a build up of hormones from taking the pill for that long?  it feels like pregnancy sypmtoms but that wouldn't be possible so it's obviously not that...
