Advice needed!

I am in my late 30s and trying to concieve for the first time since Feb. For the first time since trying, this month I had some major early pregnancy symptoms and my period was even two days late and I was convinced I had finally done it! but then my period arrived... gutted! Is it possible that I was pregnant but that it didn't take for some reason? is this normal or something I should be worried about? just wanted to sound it out before I worry!
