I am so sorry for all of the heartbreak on this thread
It is amazing that some of you have been through so much, and have so much strength getting through it.

2014 sucked. I'm ready for a fresh start in 2015.
1. Rough pregnancy & moderate bed rest, lots of tears and contractions & a hard time with my oldest. I didn't fully enjoy pregnancy and I wanted to.
2. So much sadness and drama with my sister, who is normally my very best friend.
3. PPA. I think that's self-explanatory. -
@Mrs. Jump Rope: have things gotten any better with your sister? I've been meaning to ask because I see her posting on your FB a lot but wasn't sure. Hoping it's better now!
-
@Littlebit: nope nope nope. Biggest blowout over Xmas, and I stormed out of my moms house on Sunday. I didn't even look at her or say goodbye.
-
@Mrs. Jump Rope: gah. I'm sorry! I was really hoping things were much better! Same old issues?
-
@Littlebit: similar.
-
GOODBYE 2014 - see you never.
Within three weeks, we were hit with:
1. Husband laid off from work
2. MIL diagnosed with cancer
3. Miscarriage and D&C
WTF?! 2015 has to be better for all of us! -
@spaniellove: hugs!!
Didn't know he was born deaf. I know you thought he had hearing issues and you had issues with the Drs thinking you were an anxious mom. I'm so sorry. -
1) Didn't get pregnant in 2014. (Even with New clinic, new diagnosis and tried IUI # 4,5,6) I swore last year that 2014 would be our year. I guess I was wrong.
2) With my IVF treatment & DH's surgery and other dr bills. We spent over $25k in just medical expenses.
3) Because we still aren't pregnant, we are again pushing off moving out of our state and back east. We are in our state for 6 years and people back home is asking us if we are on the 10 year plan. I hope we are not still on the west coast in 4 more years. -
1. Gall stones on my pancreas and the two weeks in the hospital before having my gall bladder out.
2. DH got laid off. But that turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
3. Plumbing issue that flooded our linoleum that had to be replaced.
But, 2014 was WAY better than 2013 was and had much more good things than bad.

My heart feels sad for all the loss and struggle everyone has gone through in this thread. Wishing everyone a better 2015!
@bluestriped bee: Yes, they told us before we left the hospital that he failed his newborn screenings and at 5w the audiologist gave us the diagnosis.

I'm so sorry that so many have had a rough time this year. As others have said, my two pale in comparison to the heartbreak that many of you have endured.
1. PPA
2. Extreme family drama. -
@spaniellove: That happened to me. My daughter has hearing loss and some other delays, and for months everyone told me I was just an anxious new mom. I wish they had been right. I hope your son is doing well.
-
to all of you... there is a lot of sadness on this board. Here's to a happier 2015.

Well-
1) My Grandmother passed away from Cancer in January
2) The day of her funeral we found out that my Grandfather (her husband) had a tumor in the hip. We prayed it wasn't cancer but it was. He was in perfect health and mind up until that day! He fell the following week having to have hip surgery. Then the next week they did emergency colon surgery. His poor body and soul couldn't take the recovery from surgeries and chemo!
3) He passed away 6 months to the day after she did.
I take comfort in knowing that he loved her so much that he couldn't be without her and that's why he passed away too. -
Wow, reading some of these makes me realize my problems aren't that bad! Overall though, 2014 definitely had the most stress of any year so far. Here are some of the things we dealt with:
Nanny quitting with no notice in Jan
8 back to back double ear infections from daycare, followed by dr. Telling us to pull him out
Requesting a transfer from DH's job, waiting 7 months with no response before finally interviewing elsewhere, Dh's company finds out about the interviewing and finally agrees
Months of me traveling from nuc to philly for interviews with several different companies only to be told that i make too much $
We bought a new house (yaay!) but have been in contract to sell our apartment since september. We now live in an empty house with no washer/dryer since we have no $ until we close. -
Big hugs to everyone that needs it. What an awful, awful year- I am so sad to hear about everyone's losses (especially of LOs).
1. Infertility. No BFPs since my miscarriage last year, and now have to save for surgery.
2. DH took an unexpected pay cut earlier this year, which has really hindered our ability to have infertility treatment
3. Work. Just, ugh.
4. Depression and apathy leading both DH and I to be overweight and out of shape. We *will* fix that in 2015.
2014 felt like a holding pattern for me, I'm no better off than I was at the end of the sucktastic year that was 2013. I really hope for some progress to be made by the start of 2016.
-
My marriage is on the brink of failing...like full on divorce. I'm 80 lbs overweight and can't find the drive to lose it. Tonight ( NYE) was our 9 yr anniversary of being together and we fought and now are sleeping in separate beds. Life fail.
-
@HTownMom: hugs! That sounds like an awful night. Have you guys tried counseling? Fx that 2015 is a better year for you and your DH.
-
@Crystal: thanks so much! I think couples counseling is our next stop to try and save our marriage and family.
-
I'm so sorry that everyone's year sucked so much!
The news that our 1st IVF pregnancy was a blighted ovum...and that I would need another D+C...really marred the year for me. I just want so badly for this pregnancy to be successful.
-
I'm so sorry to those of you who have suffered terrible losses. My heart goes out to all of you.
-
I am so sorry for all of the heartache and hardships that have come your way. Cheers to a better 2015 for everyone. Happy New Years to all.
-
@Mrs. Jacks: Just saw your comment - thank you. It sounds like you went through an awful lot this year as well! I hope 2015 is better for all of us!
It is amazing that some of you have been through so much, and have so much strength getting through it.
