Ok I'm 16 years old my boyfriend and I have had sex a couple of times. We've used protection every time we've had sex. I also am taking birth control (for my acne). I was pretty sure at first that we were safe, but now I'm demonstrating signs of early pregnancy such as:
-Bloating
-Lightheadedness
-Heart-burn and stomach sickness
-Headaches and fatigue

I bought a pregnancy test and it was negative. (assuming I used it right xD) But these symptoms are really starting to worry me...maybe I'm just being paranoid...or maybe I really am pregnant?

If you have been using your birth control correctly, the failure rate is less than 1%. If you miss a pill here and there, the rate goes up significantly.
As for your symptoms, most women do not start experiencing heartburn, stomach sickness and bloating until about the sixth week of pregnancy. Do you remember the date your last normal menstrual cycle began? If you are in fact pregnant, that will help you determine approximately how far along you are. Also, when you take an at-home pregnancy test, you MUST use it exactly as instructed for it to be accurate. Hold the stick down at an angle in your urine stream for no longer than 5 seconds and immediately lay it on a flat surface and wait 2-3 minutes.
Do you normally have symptoms similar to these when you have your period or leading up to it? That could be the cause.
Best wishes.

Hi honey! I PROMISE you that you are NOT pregnant! AND good for you for using both forms of protection! SOME BCP's can cause the symtpoms you are talking about also these are the same as PMS so do you know when your next period is due?
