r - ggplot2: Problem with x axis when adding regression line equation on each facet

Question

Based on the example here Adding Regression Line Equation and R2 on graph, I am struggling to include the regression line equation for my model in each facet. However, I don't figure why is changing the limits of my x axis.

library(ggplot2)
library(reshape2)

df <- data.frame(year = seq(1979,2010), M02 = runif(32,-4,6), 
M06 = runif(32, -2.4, 5.1), M07 = runif(32, -2, 7.1))
df <- melt(df, id = c("year"))


ggplot(data = df, mapping = aes(x = year, y = value)) +
geom_point() +
scale_x_continuous() + 
stat_smooth_func(geom = 'text', method = 'lm', hjust = 0, parse = T) +
geom_smooth(method = 'lm', se = T) +
facet_wrap(~ variable) # as you can see, the scale_x_axis goes back to 1800

If I include on the x the limits,

scale_x_continuous(limits = c(1979,2010)) 

it does not show the regression coefficient anymore. What am I doing wrong here?

stat_smooth_func available here: https://gist.github.com/kdauria/524eade46135f6348140

You can use stat_poly_eq function from the ggpmisc package.

library(reshape2)
library(ggplot2)
library(ggpmisc)

df <- data.frame(year = seq(1979,2010), M02 = runif(32,-4,6),

df <- melt(df, id = c("year"))

formula1 <- y ~ x

ggplot(data = df, mapping = aes(x = year, y = value)) +
  geom_point() +

               formula = formula1, parse = TRUE, size = 3) +
  facet_wrap(~ variable)
