@LulaBee: I am so, so very sorry. I was wondering about you (I was in the March board for a short while.) I just want to offer my condolences.
-
@LulaBee: I'm so sorry

@LulaBee:
I am so sorry for your loss.

My three:
1. Seeing E with all the wires and breathing machines. I was pretending to be strong but I was pretty crushed. I felt like what have I done wrong for him to arrive early?
2. N's constant weight battle. How am I failing him? We are constantly worrying if he is getting enough calories. We are back on the dive again with his weight.
3. Car accident in October costing us a good part of our Christmas savings.We are looking forward to 2015.
-
Oh my goodness, so much sadness in this thread. Love to all of you.
F*ck you 2014.
-
So many horrible things this year
I am hoping for a better 2015 for everyone.For me (chronologically):
- finding out about my son's heart defect at my anatomy scan
- being told I was in between a rock and a hard place to finish my dissertation.
- My son crashing and ending up with brain damage, along with his extended stay in the hospital while we wait for him to heal enough for surgery. -
@LAZB: @lulabee: @MrsScallop: There are no words. So much love for you all and your families. I wish you nothing but happiness in 2015.
To echo others, 2015 was tough for us (totaled car while pregnant, suspected placental abruption, health issues for loved ones), when I read what other people have gone through it just all seems trivial comparably.
-
3 unsuccessful IUIs
1 failed IVF cycle
Being told using my eggs for IVF will likely never result in pregnancy for us
*wishing everyone strength. It's hard to put one foot in front of the other some days
-
Much love to everyone who has experienced such terrible loss this year.
Lo had itp and had to be hospitalized.
Work and home life is hard to juggle.
Money. I spend too much and make too little. I feel like it's a constant monkey on my back and it has been made more evident as the year continued.
-
@lulabee: I'm so so sorry for your loss.
-
1. Chemical pregnancy
2. Miscarriage the week after seeing a heartbeat; plus the D&C and complications.
3. DH was in a serious car accident. -
Worst thing of 2014: my marriage. My Dad getting cancer, twice. Everything else in my life is small beans compared to that.
Very very ready to see what 2015 has in store.
-
@MrsScallop: hugs
-
So much sadness on this thread. Big hugs to everyone
-
1 . Grandmother died
2. Cousins suicide
3. Two weeks of different flus.Last two have been in the last two weeks
-
1. Chemical pregnancy in July
2. Put my cat to sleep in November
3. Major fuck up at work recently that is making being here miserable and causing stress.After reading these posts, I realize how trivial my 3 really are. I hope 2015 is a great year for you all!
-
@LulaBee: I had absolutely no idea. I am so sorry to see this and for all you have been through.
-
Love to all of you. Goodbye and good riddance 2014.
1. D crashing in late January during his 2nd nicu stay, days before he was supposed to be discharged, and subsequent short gut syndrome diagnosis and lifelong GI complications
2. Learning that D has cerebral palsy
3. My marriage almost falling apartWe've recovered from a lot, and things are looking up. Nothing can compare to the pain of 2013, but 2014 had some low moments!
-
I'm joining the good riddanice crowd...
Miscarriage in april
mil diagnosed with cancer...she's ok but she's had a rough year of treatments
mom died unexpectedly 2 days after thanksgiving.I'm now on bed rest and can't pick up my little man and just had to listen to him scream for me because I couldn't put him to bed like I usually do. So many tears (him too).
Ready for a new start in 2015. This is probably the hardest year I have ever faced.
hugs to the rest of you too. Praying things are better for everyone -
We have had a pretty good year, although it's been hard in a lot of work way.
1. Things going to hell in a hand basket at my work, resulting in me leaving. I'm now staying at home, which is fine, but...just fine.
2. Finding out my son has dairy, peanut, walnut, and pecan allergies. He threw up for the first six months of 2014.
3. My son being born prematurely. He is fine, and I'm happy to have him when he came, but I would've liked to keep him on the inside for a few more weeks.
@Mrs. Lion: I am so so sorry about your mom.
-
So ready for 2014 to be over...
1. Our roof leaked into our living room and had to be completely replaced.
2. A campaign my husband was working on suffered a major loss on election night, causing a huge setback to his long term career plans for the next couple years.
3. We have struggled to get pregnant with #2 since August, suffered an early miscarriage in November, and my hormones now appear to be screwing with my cycle and ability to conceive!Here's to health, prosperity and happiness for all of us in the new year!
-
Mine seem silly compared to the rest...
1. Norovirus
2. Strep three times while having a new baby
3. A big argument DH and I had that I still can't shake (months later) -
@Mrs. Lion: hugs
I'm so sorry for your losses
-
to everyone who has had a really shitty year. Especially those who lost their LOs - I can't even imagine.
Mine include losing my beloved grandmother and my sister moving across the country.
Hope 2015 brings only great things for everyone !
-
@HLK208: No hardship is silly
-
My troubles pale in comparison but it was still a difficult year.
1. Husband suffered from debilitating depression and was hospitalized 3 times (for a total of 6 weeks).
2. I had to be LOs sole caregiver for a good portion of the year, while working full time and helping care for DH. I had several bad colds/stomach flu during that time, which was challenging without family nearby.
3. My grandfather, who I adored, passed away the week before Christmas. -
There is really just one but it affected us so much that it can easily count as 3 things.
-
1. My younger brother's cancer diagnosis and subsequent surgeries and treatment.
2. Return of my own anxiety issues.
3. Rocky launch of a big work project causing long hours and increased stress.Hoping for a better 2015 for all.
-
Oh eff it. My LO just threw up again. We thought he had a stomach bug a few days ago but he just did again and we are realizing the pattern is more like when he had an undiagnosed dairy allergy for six months.
-
My troubles pale in comparison to the ones listed here. Sending tons of love and hugs to each of you.
-
1. We lost our baby boy at 11 weeks into pregnancy.
2. We lost our second IVF pregnancy at nearly 6 weeks.
3. Our last shot at another IVF fresh transfer for 2014 was a freeze all, and I still haven't had a recovery period.2014 can suck it.
-
Lots of love & support to you ladies who have also had tragedies and sadness this year.
-
@Cherrybee: Amen to your last statement!
1) My brother in law was diagnosed with kidney cancer and just had surgery. He's only 40 and they have 3 kids.
2) DH diagnosed with a heart condition and out of work for 2 months while facing a pending review of his medical report to see if he could continue in his job or not.
3) My Nana died. I love her so much and still sometimes feel like she's go to call me. The holidays were my first without her being present.
I really hope 2015 brings much better times and memories to us all
-
2014 was more good than bad for me, but still:
1) All of LO's eating issues/drama
2) My grandma had surgery and got diagnosed with cancer
3) I lost my job and haven't found a new one (this will also be on my best things list... I have mixed feelings). -
@jaguar: Wishing you so much goodness and happiness in 2015.
-
@78h2o: I think you went through a tremendous amount this year. I could not have borne what you went through with such grace.
-
@simplyfelicity: @BeachMama: @Tidybee: Thank you.
Hugs to everyone on this thread.
-
What incredible grace and strength you all have! I'm humbled by these posts.
-
Major sleep deprivation. I haven't slept more than 3 consecutive hours since April.
BUT it seems like such a little thing compared to what you ladies have gone through!!
