Missed one pill, early pregnancy symptoms?

Hi, I am taking desogestrel (mini pill) as contraception. I missed a pill a couple of weeks ago on the Sunday by mistake, myself and my partner had sex on the Wednesday.
Fast forward 2 weeks, I am constantly feeling nauseous, keep getting headaches, certain smells are making me gag.
Its suddenly dawned on me could I pregnant?
I've taken a cheap test which is negative (appreciate it's probably too early to test positive).
What are other people's thoughts?
It wouldn't be the end of the world if I was pregnant, we have our own home are financially stable etc.

It only takes 2 days of pill taking to be covered against pregnancy after missing a mini pill. Did you have sex in the days before the missed pill?

No i didn't!
I was thinking that as I took the pill on the Monday and Tuesday?!
I'm sure it's nothing, I'm probably just being paranoid! Just strange as I never usually feel like this 🤣
