PG symptoms... birth control failure!?

I have concerns that I may be pregnant, how I’m not sure as I am on the combined pill, though I know of others who have fallen pregnant when using this.
I am not looking for symptoms in hope as with my wedding being a few months away it would not be the best time for me to conceive.
Symptoms:

  • Menstrual type cramps despite being in the middle of a pill pack (so AF is not on the way)
  • Slight cramp like pains in my hips / pelvis (mainly on the left)
  • Some pains in my lower back
- Feeling very tired by the end of each day / generally lethargic (I slept nearly 10 hours the other night and still felt tired the next day!) - Excess wind / bouts of mild indigestion (sorry for the TMI!) - Milky odourless discharge (sorry… TMI again!) - I would not know if I have missed a period as I take two packs of pills back-to-back, therefore I don’t have a regular monthly visit from AF.

I took a test this morning and it was negative, which set my mind at rest somewhat, but I know people often have a couple of negatives only to have a positive a few days later.
Do my symptoms match up with what any of you had in early pregnancy?
Thanks in advance x

No they don't sound anything like y PG signs which were:

missed period
Metallic taste in mouth
feeling tired
weeing more often
slightly sore nipples
feeling nauseous

None of this was evident until the 2nd month anyway ( so missed 2 periods)
