Could I possibly be prego?

Ok here we go...i'm married about to turn 22 and I am on bc, ortho evra (the patch) been taking it for 3 1/2 years almost 4. In January of this year i had a really nasty sinus/upper respiratory infection and was put on first the Z-pak and got worse and it starting traveling to my lungs and then got put on augminton. So i was antibiotics for about a month and during which i was having lots of unprotected sex (i'm a bit of a nympho). When i was finished with the antibiotics i started to have headaches and now I've been cramping for the last 2 weeks....I have NEVER cramped with my periods. I'm not due to start until Mar 5th. I've now started to wake up at 2 in the morning feeling like the room is too hot. I've always have had weird food cravings and I haven't really noticed if i have urinated more often then usual or not. I have had a couple of days of being nauseated early in the morining throw up and then i'm fine. I haven't taken a prego test yet i'm waiting until I miss my period. I'm really excited and really hope I'm prego! ^.^

Yes, it's VERY possible - antibiotics counteract the effects of birth control. Your doctor should have told you that when they prescribed the antibiotics. It also may have been on the pamphlet that came with it at the pharmacy. Either way, it does sound like you're pregnant, so good luck! :)
