i am guessing that you haven't got your period so the first thing to do would be take a home pregnancy test. if that comes up negative but you still haven't got it yet, i would call your doctor because there is a blood test they can do.

stress certainly can play games with your period though and although i have three children, there were a few times where i thought i was actually pregnant but i was not. if your period is like clockwork and you are significantly late, i would definitely call your doctor. good luck. : )
