Pregnancy Info HOME

I am 41 years old with an 11 year old son. I remarried about a year and a half ago and we decided to have my IUD removed last November to try to get pregnant. I am overweight, but my period has always been EXTREMELY regular and my doctor didn't see any reason why I could not conceive. Then in January I got laid off and lost my health insurance. Because I could not be added to my husband's policy until this coming Sept because of open enrollment restrictions, we did not really 'pursue' getting pregnant. We continued our normal s_xual activity but I have not seen a doctor since the end of January. Now- I did not have my period in July and I have still not had one for August! Normally my cycle is like clockwork- same symptoms, etc. period always starts on the 3rd Thursday of each month, lasts 4 days, with one light day after that. This month again- nothing. I have not been sleeping well, have had lower back pain and do seem to be peeing a lot. With my first, I was so sick when I got pregnant right from the start that I thought I had the flu, but so far no nausea. I took one over the counter test and it came up negative, but I just feel really WEIRD and over hot and sleepy all the time. I should be able to go to the doctor next month when my health coverage is returned, and have started taking a pre-natal vitamin just in case. Has anyone else experienced anything like this?
