Pycharm - Shelved Changes... now I'd like it back

Question

I was working on branch1 but had to switch to branch2, so while in branch1 (also, I didn't commit) I went to VCS-> Shelve Changes... then hoped onto branch2 and did stuff. Now I'm back at branch1 and can't find how to get my shelved changes back. VCS dropdown

I've read this: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/shelving-and-unshelving-changes.html#555de but I don't have a Shelf tab. So I read this on how to get a Shelf tab: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/shelf-tab.html but I don't have View | Tool Windows | Version Control | Shelf
View dropdown

What shows up when I try views - tool window - git

Slightly different issue, but if Google took you here because you can't find your Shelf tab, check out my answer here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/71167546/1679571 — Randy, Feb 18 '22 at 01:57

Hi @user2235698 :) This is just showing me Git and my local/remote branches and commits but I don't see Shelf here. – KristiLuna Nov 09 '20 at 18:13
Do you have the `Git - Uncommitted Changes - Show Shelf` menu option? – user2235698 Nov 10 '20 at 11:24
No I don't see that. I've added a screenshot in my question of what shows up when I try view - tool windows - git – KristiLuna Nov 10 '20 at 16:22
