pregnant on mini pill?

Hi, sorry if i sound dumb ... after 3 kids you woukld think all this would come naturally but my last child was 10 years ago and i seem to have forgotten everything.

I was on the implant but i bled for 9 months so they have removed it and im on the pill now, Cerazette to be exact.
im now a week late on, cant afford a test til tuesday :/ and its now friday.

I have back ache and my boobs have grown out of all control..... and im ever so tired all the time, and my wee smells reallyu strong even tho im drinking lots BUT like i say im on the pill, have taken it everyday with out fail altho not always at same time of day (dont think that matters woth this pill)

I am taking other medication for high blood pressure and migraines but cant see that effecting it can you?

im 33... oh and ive been on this pill for .... 6 weeks. didnt have sex til id been on it 11 days (to be on the safe side lol)

any ideas>

I was on that pill for about 6 months.....the reason I came off it was because my periods were all over the place.
With it not being like a normal pill, (with a 7 day break) theres no actual indication as to when you should expect your period......atleast, not until your body has had time to adjust to a pattern.
In your case, you have only been on it 6 weeks, so I would assume your body is just trying to adjust to all that progesterone.
I too had the implant, which I had removed after 9 months due to bleeding constantly. The implant is progesterone too.
You may find progesterone-only contraceptives mess your cycles up. They certainly have with me.
Whilst achey boobs and back are a sign of early pregnancy, its amazing what the side effects of these little pills can have.
I guess the not knowing is the hardest bit, and waiting around is really tough....but the only way you'll put your mind at ease is to take the test. So good luck for Tuesday!
