Considering this is only the second month, you should have used a back-up method for at least the first month. With that said, you probably are not pregnant for a couple of reasons: 1) it was early in your cycle and you might not have ovulated yet. 2) you only missed 2 days without your NuvaRing, rather than 3 or more days.
It's a little early yet to be having "symptoms" that you could be pregnant. You are probably just paranoid and it's on your mind, so you think you are having symptoms. If you are very worried, wait until time for your period to start, and if it doesn't start, buy a home pregnancy test.
However, there is a possibility that you are pregnant. Every type of birth control has a chance of failing. If you got lucky this time, I would definitely recomment NOT making this mistake again.

birth control is often round ninety 5% efficient with common use. So, for each 100 human beings, 5 get pregnant in accordance to 12 months anyhow, thats lots! anyhow, i changed into on the NuvaRing and that i hated it. It heavily made me like, ruthless. My boyfriend changed into like, petrified of me at the same time as i changed into on that. My thoughts were a mess, and that i changed into the most ruthless bitc h ever.

Yes, those extra two days may have lowered its effectiveness. With all types of contraceptive there is even a small chance that you will get pregnant. Nothing is 100% effective if you are sexually active. If a few days after the 17th your period still hasn't come, I would buy an at-home pregnancy test to check.

considering you didn't use it the way you meant it to be used (ie put the new ring in on time) yes you could be pregnant.
