im really scared to get an epidural bc im scared of needles how was everyones epidural ppl keep…

I got one with my second son and it wasn't bad at all its scary but u will be fine :)

like every medical procedure, things can go wrong. I never had an epidural, but I had the spinal block for a c section, essentially the same placement. like the above chick stated, it is scary, i'll admit i freaked out, but in the end, mine was okay. If you are seriously worried, talk to your doctor. the doctor I had was really great about reassuring me.

I don't think that women get paralyzed from it too much.. but I have read numerous stories about women who after 3-5 years are still having uncomfortable pains where they got the epidural. just like everything else there is a risk involved. you just have to decide for yourself if the risk is too much for you.

I've learned you can't listen to everyone. I've scared myself for 8 months from hearing stories. Everyone experience is different !!! Don't be scared Hun

Contractions are way more painful then getting the epidural in so you will be in pain that you won't care anymore but I don't want to scare you but my epidural didn't work on me so I still felt everything everyone's body is different so it's really up to you but I'm telling you when they put it in its not painful at all it's just a little sting

ok thankyou 💙
