Infertility to Triplets with Shelby Stewart | Realising Your Mothering Doesnt Divide, It Multiplies

Published: Dec. 12, 2023, 11 a.m.

b'When Shelby was 15 years old, she was diagnosed with cancer, Non-Hodgkin\'s Lymphoma and she ended up undergoing chemo, radiation, and surgery, removing a tumour off of her heart. During that treatment, the chemo she received really did a number on her reproductive system. Because she was a minor, she wasn\\u2019t really given the option to preserve her eggs or do any kind of fertility preservation, so she later had a lot of difficulty falling pregnant, even being told by a doctor that she will not ever be able to have kids because of the intense treatment she received.

  • Shelby\\u2019s story 1:00
  • Dating and having to handle infertility 6:30
  • Becoming pregnant for the first time 17:00
  • Going back to the fertility clinic and more difficulty 22:20
  • What it\\u2019s like to have triplets 35:00
  • The different personalities and love languages 46:00

\\u201cI had always just, like a lot of women, you expect that you will be able to be a mother. It\\u2019s part of the plan. It\\u2019s not something that you know you\\u2019re going to struggle with. So when I had that realisation, it just kind of took my plans, crumpled them up, and tossed them out, like \\u2018Oh yeah, you\\u2019re not having kids.\\u2019\\u201d 3:31
