1. Get a home pregnancy test and determine if you're pregnant.
2. Get the professional opinion of your OB/GYN
I checked at a site I'll liste below and found this specific information:
What happens if you take birth control pills while you're pregnant?
If you continued taking your birth control pill because you didn't realize you were pregnant, don't be alarmed. Despite years of this accident happening, there's very little evidence that exposure to the hormones in birth control pills causes birth defects.
Still, the birth control pill is a potent estrogen. Lessons learned from women who took diethylstilbestrol — a synthetic estrogen that was later linked with cancer — to prevent miscarriage in early pregnancy suggest that such exposure should be minimized.
Once you learn that you're pregnant, stop taking the birth control pill.
Hope this helps you!

Your best bet is to take a pregnacy test or call your doctor's office and explain that you think you might be pregnant so they can do a blood test to see if you are pregnant. Taking birth control while pregnant most likely won't hurt the baby but it's better safe than sorry.

if you are taking your regular 1 pill a day it will not harm a baby. Best thing to do is stop the pack of pills you are on, let your period come, and start a new pack the next week. If you do not get a period, take a test. And use a back up method of birth control, condons, sponge ect until you are back on a regular bc schedule

You shouldn't take the birth control if there's a possibility you could be pregnant - it can harm the baby, hence why it says "Do not take if you are pregnant or may be pregnant". Take a pregnancy test or go see a doctor to be positive - good luck!

Take a test.
Birth control has not been shown to harm a devloping baby. Some woman get pregnant on birth control & have totally healthy babies.

You should go to the doctor. Have you taken a PT?
