so i'm supposed to get my period next week, and i havent had any pms symptoms, but my breasts are sore and i've had nausea. I'm thinking I might be pregnant, but I'm on the birth control pill, and I haven't missed any. Is it even a possibility that I'm pregnant?

It is possible to get pregnant while on the pill, but if you are using them correctly, it is a very low chance.
With regard to your nausea, you would probably not be experiencing this as a pregnancy symptom a week before your period is due. I'm pregnant with twins and was horrifically sick, and that didn't even start until a bit later. The pregnancy hormones simply wouldn't have built up enough in your blood to be producing nausea as a symptom.
Many people can worry themselves into being sick, or suddenly attribute any symptoms they have to being pregnant. I'd like to congratulate you on being responsible enough to use the birth control pill - well done. If you are unsure if you are using it correctly, the little folded paper bit that comes with it is a wealth of information!
