Could I be pregnant?

Hi, I'm 18 years old and reasonably fit and healthy apart from being perhaps a little underweight.
I've been on the contraceptive pill (cerazette) since me & my boyfriend started having sex (around 18months ago) and as a result I don't get periods. I'm reasonably good at taking them. I take it at night and if I forget I take it in the monring.
Recently (the past few weeks - maybe up to 8 weeks) I've been feeling really bloated and my abdomen has felt very sensitive. For example, when I bend over and lean it against something or someone leans on it it feels tender and a bit sore and ever when I'm hungry and haven't eaten for a while I feel bloated.
Do you think I could be pregnant?

its possible but the question is...are you still having unprotected sex? like with out a condom. because birth controls not 100% thats why you should use a condom as well

I went to the doctor (about something else) and mentioned it to her. She told me to hand in a urine sample and she's going to test for an infection & also do a pregnancy test.
I just wanted to know if it was likely...

It IS possible.. Have you taken a test? No contraceptive is 100% especially when taken exactly as directed..

I would take a hpt and go from there.. If it comes back -, I would call your Dr. and express your concerns, it could be a number of different things. Good luck and sorry I couldn't be of more help.
