Hello and welcome to EmpowHer,
First of all, taking the pill at different times can decrease their effectiveness, however, it takes one or two weeks of being off the pill to ovulate. With that said, it is very unlikely that you were ovulating when your had intercourse, especially since your period was about to start.
Also, taking the pills can potentially deregulate your period. Plus the hormones in EC usually causes irregular bleeding. You can also expect side effects including: tender breasts, cramping, and nausea.
You are not pregnant. You are simply experiencing the side effects that come with not only taking EC, but taking it while on regular birth control pills, right before your period is about to start.
I hope that helps.
Faith
