@chachancortez, yes girl and I've heard of people saying it only worked on half their body so make sure they come in and flop you to your other side every so often, I can't remember the exact timing. I learned from my nurse that epidurals work by gravity basically so if you're in one position for too long, it'll gravitate toward that area and make it much more numb than the other! They gave me a foam wedge to prop up on and she came to roll me over every so often and it kept it working on both sides. Good luck momma!

Epidural!! Lol! 😁

Lol that's a must, but I don't want to get it too soon. I don't want it to wear off @arielle

It won't wear off. They have a new thing where the needle stays inside you and you can press the button every 15 minutes to get more medicine.
