If you stopped taking your birth control pills just a few weeks ago, and have had frequent unprotected sex, you do have a chance of pregnancy.
Please know that for healthy women, you have "only" a 20% chance of conception with each cycle. The only "early pregnancy" symptom you can depend on is a missed period, as it takes 10-14 days for a woman to become pregnant (from time of ovulation to implantation). Additionally, pregnancy symptoms mimic so many other conditions (upcoming period, flu/cold, etc) that you would need to wait until your expected period to either begin, or take a home pregnancy test.

I am assuming you are trying to conceive?

Good luck!
