Get a test! If you are stressed enough about this to be posting here, it's worth your time doncha think? Not to mention the fact that if you are pregnant, there are important decisions that need to made as early as possible. If you think you may choose an abortion, don't wait until the fetus is sucking it's thumb before you decide. If you choose to keep it, maternity care should start as early as possible as well to insure your baby is healthy. And lastly...you may not be pregnant at all and stressing over not getting your period could be causing your lack of periods! Good luck!

Agree completely with willywombat.
Why would you defer getting a $10 (or equivalent) pregnancy test? Those "other things" you have to worry about are going to fade into nothing if you find you are pregnant, don't you think? And if you're not, then a lot of the stress you're feeling will disappear almost instantly.
I think you might be frightened about having your fears confirmed, and saying you're "too busy" is just an excuse.
If you've been irregular in the past, that could be your problem now, and you really need to know one way or the other.
Go. Chemist. Now.

Get yourself to the pharmacy and get yourself an early pregnancy test. There is no point putting yourself thru all this stress when you could pee on a stick and find out what is going on for definate!
Nobody on here can reassure you because we cannot tell you just from your letter if your pregnent or not. The only advice I can give is go and get a test and find out for definate, and good luck, whatever the outcome.
