Half of notes disappeared after upgrading to iCloud Plus in iPad

I upgraded to iCloud+ for more storage and everything seemed okay until I checked my notes app and half of my notes were gone except for a couple from earlier this year. Anyway I can recover them? Im truly upset about this and can't believe that something that was supposed to add storage would remove so many important things.
