Intro and plan...(longish)

Hello ladies! I would like to apologize in advance for any typos- I have bum "a" key.
Anyhow... I've been lurking around here for a few months now, but have never posted because I knew that BFP was just around the corner. I was wrong. I was pregnant for a brief time in Mar/Apr with a Nov 23rd due date. At 8 weeks, we discovered the baby had stopped growing at 6 weeks. I had a D&C at 10 weeks. We had only been trying since the beginning of the year, so it all happened pretty quickly. I had hoped that would be the case again, but the universe has other plans for us. I know 4 cycles after m/c is not that long, but right now it feels like an eternity!!! I do have 3 kids (and a loss between #1 and #2) from my previous marriage, so I know firsthand that rainbows do happen. Due to my "advanced" age (39), we had only planned to try until the end of the year, so now that I feel like the pressure is on, I have devised a sick and twisted plan to finally get a BFP and a baby to go along with it. Here it is....
1) Buy a ton of pregnancy tests. Having them on hand will hopefully negate the need for them.
2) Start the Insanity! workout. Working out consistently and feeling good about it will likely result in being unable to continue- HR will be WAY over 140.
3) Intro on this board. Finally having a place to vent and laugh with a great group of gals should lead to my having to leave the group.
4) Realize that wht we think is perfectly timed sex, must not be and start charting. (I have no smart-@$$ comment for this, I really should have started long ago.)
Ok, so while I totally realize none of these things will actually help me to conceive, I think I will feel better having done them. Nice to finally formally meet all of you!
