You are still quite young, and the system doesn't always run so promptly according to a calendar date. In fact, for the first two years after your first period, they usually are very erratic. Even once they are established and a normal cycle appears, there are lots of things that can set one amiss. In your case, the most obvious reason is the process of puberty itself, which is a time of great change and upheaval inside your body. Things may just not always go as planned. You can set a cycle off by being sick, stressed, making a major change in something, going on vacation, or just for reasons never really known. It happens in the life of every woman, at least once. So you likely really are just fine, and there isn't a problem. When your body sorts out everything, your period will happen- trust me. It will probably happen when you find it least convenient as well- that's a law of the universe. If you are really still concerned about this, I think you should talk with your mother. It's not as if this is a subject she knows nothing about, and she's been expert enough to get you this far. I think it's safe to say she will have the right answers for you this time as well.

Are you pregnant? If not,have you been sick or under a lot of stress? If none of the above apply go to the doctor and get checked out.

ask your mom if she doesn't no go to the doctors

either ur pregnant lol or its just tht itll cm next month but instead of one week to weeks, same thing happened here!:S

Missing periods at your age is common - you're still only 13, and your periods are still sorting themselves out. Also, have you been under stress lately? Stress is definitely a factor which can delay your period, among many other things, like having a recent illness, excessive exercise, changes in your lifestyle, your diet or daily routine. There are all sorts of perfectly normal reasons for missed periods - I wouldn't worry about it. :-)
