The hormones in BC pills may (MAY) damage the fetus. Your friend needs to see her doctor immediately.

Yes it can do damage as well as it might not do anything it depends on the person I took it a couple of times before I found out I was pregnant my baby is fine so far but not born yet so we will see. My friend was told by her doctor she wasnt pregnant and she stayed on birht control her baby is fine and is 6 1/2 years old now. Just have her stop taking it now and go see the doctor to be sure. Wouldnt want to take any chances with hurting the baby. Good luck!

Recommend she see her ob/gyn as soon as possible, right after she quits taking the stupid things.
Actually, I have a friend who took BC's for the first four months of her pregnancy, and elected to have the baby anyway. He was quite normal, and very intelligent, but stands to reason this isn't always the case. Some health effects are possible in this instance for both herself and her baby, but panic should not lead her to do anything rash. While lots of the possibilities depend on what kind of BC she's taking, babies really are amazingly resislient, and the risk of birth defects is often overemphasized.
The odds really are in her favor.
Above all, she should not worry about it.

the way the pill work is it convinces your body you are already pregnant so that it does not release the egg...then once you start the week of sugar pills or go off it for a week your body no longer thinks you are pregnant. so, it begins to shed the lining on your uterus that was forming to help the egg develop into a fetus (your period). So if you are actually pregnant you should stop taking the pill right away so that lining continues to form and does not shed....tell your friend to go to the doctor for a test before she stops the pill to ensure she is actually pregnant.

I was pregnant for 3 months and didn't know it. I did not have my period for over a year. I took the pill the whole time and when my doc told me I was I freaked and she said just stop taking them, don't worry, everything is fine. I had my baby, he is beautiful and healthy. Nothing wrong. I did worry though until he was born because I could find no info at all on the subject. So just tell her not to fret and congrats are in order even though I'm sure she didn't plan for it.

Taking the birth control pill while pregnant can cause birth defects or spontaneus abortion. It is important that your friend go to an ob/gyn as soon as possible so an ultra sound can be done to check on the welfare of the baby. However, I should note that it is also possible that it has had no effect on the unborn baby. Studies show that there is no consistancy in the effects of taking birth control pills during the first trimester of pregnancy. Always, the safest thing to do in this situation is to go to the doctor.

I was on the pill and taking antibiotics when I got pregnant the first time. My son was fine. If she thinks she may be pregnant she should stop immediately and get a test. Continued use of the pill may be harmful if she is pregnant.
