@bluepenguin, yeah that's the tough decisions we're faced with but when your in so much pain and all you want is for it to be over with and your baby to be here it makes sense to cave into the pain medication but they don't warn you that it can have long lasting effects on you! Which is messed up

@brianna_ yeah I was trying not to do the epidural but I was on pitocin because my water broke on its own but my contractions wouldn't start, so they gave me pitocin and my contractions came hard and were so irregular and eventually I got horrible burning pain in my thighs, lower belly and lower back and I couldn't handle it because they were coming one minute apart and lasting so long, I gave in to the epidural. Now I regret it, but I also was in unbearable pain. So I dunno if it was the right decision

@joska, wtf, that's ridiculous! They don't tell you that stuff in the hospital

@brianna_, yass same thing I said 😑

@joska, permanent whhhaaaattt 😫😱

@bluepenguin, omg it really messed you up!

@momof3cuties, yeah that's where mines is hurting

@brianna_, am having the same issue is hurts constantly my PCP told me it's permanent and referred me to pain management.

Mine was sore for about 1 to 2 days after. But 3 weeks pp. BOOM my back went out and I could not bend over for the love of God for about 7 weeks. I still have back pain to this day, be it little aches and pains in my lower back, if I bend a certain way. Never ever have I been this way until I had an epidural 😑

Mine hurts from the middle down. If I lay on my back for to long it hurts is much more

@momof3cuties, yeah with my daughter I don't remember it still hurting 2 weeks later but now I'm like wtffff why is my back STILL HURTING 😭😭😭

With my first 2 i didn't have any problems. With my last it still hurts 2 years later
