My wife got pregnant while on the pill. I guess my swimmers had their capes on that night. The store bought tests can be false, so until your doctor confirms the pregnancy, don't sweat it.
Now as for the alcohol and smoking, I wouldn't sweat it. A little bit here and there won't hurt anything. My wife didn't drink during either pregnancy, but she did smoke a few cigarettes.. no it wasn't a pack a day smoking, but a few every day or every other day and both my kids are normal. That doesn't mean that something can't happen.
As far as OTC drugs, ask the pharmacist, not the doctor. Thinks like Sudafed can be harmful to the fetus so you'll need to ask about any drug that is being taken. It's better to be safe than sorry.
and the most important thing if she is pregnant, is to get your cystic test done.
the other important thing is to just relax and chill out.. you have 9 months or so to prepare and get things in order. It doesn't all have to be ready today. Have fun with it... it may not be what you planned for (my daughter wasn't planned) but in the end, if you're like me, you won't trade it for anything.
