Ep.40 –Shep's Birth Story (with nods to big brother Wyatt)

Shep Clark Artymovich is here! I am 7 days post-birth, both of us doning a diaper, but was chomping at the bit to record this story while it's still fresh.

We didnt have the podcast when I birthed Wyatt in 2019, and I've felt for years i've wanted to get his story out in a fuller capacity. This story is about my new freshie Shepherd, but it's also about Wyatt paving the way for little brother to have it easier. A noble pursuit.

Content warnings:
1) infertility
2) recurrent miscarriage
3) premature birth
4) PTSD/ medical trauma
5) near-death experience

It's in deep euphoria and gratitude that i get to call my kids my own. It's not on them to heal me, but they sure do a good job.

In honor of my rootin tootin cowboys. Stay little but grow big like dad, my loves.
