There is no evidence to support that claim. It sometimes happens that woman is pregnant and keeps taking Birth Control ills because she doesn't know that she is pregnant. But if a woman find's out that she is pregnant she should stop taking the pills.
It depends on the type of pill. If you take Trivora, yes. If you take a different kind, no.

why would u take birth control when ur already pregnant

ANSWER : YES. It will at the very least dramatically increase your chances of having a baby with birth defects, especially if that child happens to be a boy. Female steroids harm a male embryo or fetus in particular even BEFORE you know you are pregnant. : http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn7333 : This is the reason that prostate cancer rates have skyrocketed since the pill arrived in 1960. A deformed prostate is not visible at birth, but can still cause prostate cancer in men decades later. these are the fact the the big pharmaceutical companies are desperate to keep women from knowing. They also don't want you to know about the decimated and deformed male fish populations downstream of water treatment plants due to even microscopic amounts of female steroids. : So, steroids like the pill, patches, IUD, and ring can give you Breast cancer and your male child prostate cancer - even if you get off them as soon as you know you're pregnant. The sad fact is, it is often too late. The damage has already been done. : http://aje.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/112/1/73
