Hi,
Since you took the additional pill, you were protected for the cycle, so chances of pregnancy are almost nil. Also, you had intercourse during the safe period. The spotting you have now could possibly be a pill breakthrough. If you wish to have confirmation, you may take a HPT or a blood test for pregnancy and see your consultant for further care. Take care.
