No it doesn't but its very painful when you're getting it while having contractions Oh man! 😭

I had 2 and nope! I think the IV in my wrist hurt more lol

I think it's worth the pain for 5 Mintues rather then feel like ur dying for hours I'm so gonna get it I don't have piercing tattoos or relate good to pain at all so I'm not gonna suffer imma get it regardless of the future lol it will be worth it in the end :) trust me hope this helps don't listen to thier bad stories or what they say everyone different I'm sure it won't hurt as bad with u girl @dess310

ppl say to get it. but my mom grandmother all said not too. because in the future it will affect your back. so I just am deciding not to do it as of this first pregnancy. I rather push through the pain an I pray to god that I can manage ..an that it's an easy delivery

With my last pregnancy I would worry about the epidural because of what people told me. Once I was in labor my contractions hurt so bad that I was yelling for the epidural and forgot about all the bad stories I had heard. It was a breeze getting it and I felt no pain after! Trust me you will wonder why you were so worried about it in the first place haha.

if you have a good anesthesiologist then you will be okay

@dess310,

I can't remember because I was having contractions the whole time they were putting my epidural in I went 16hrs without an epidural and when I got it the contractions were to strong for me to notice the epidural going in

I'm not trying to scare you but my mom said it hurt like hell. She had the spinal with my oldest brother and an epi with me. I'm asking if they can give me a different medication for my c-section because of my back problems. But, it's different for everybody.

😂😂😂 Exactly @swsnsn even though this my last kid if I ever had more I'd get a epidural every time I swear!! @dess310 everyone's pain level is different don't let no one scare you trust me it's worth it..

Same @iammykidskeeper haha I have so many piercings and I'm going to be getting a lot more tattoos. But trust me when I say the epidural will be the happiest choice you make 😂 it made my labor a breeze.

Yes lol it's real quick & it didn't hurt of course you feel the little pinch but doesn't hurt but then again I have so many piercings & tattoos needles don't bother me that much @dess310

did you think it would be worse ?? alot of people try to scare me lol.

No it doesn't hurt that much. The numbing medicine they use to numb the area before they give you the epidural stings a little but that's about it. Trust me it's worth the sting haha.

@iammykidskeeper, my mom said the same lol (x

is it just a quick poke?? doesn't really hurt ?

No we'll mine was quick but regardless I'll take that lil poke over those contractions any day😂😂
