How many of you got a back pain weeks after getting the epidural? Is that possible or am I just…

Apparently back pain after having a baby is very common. Could be the release of pressure but also I’ve heard of a bunch of people having issues related to the epidural

Sometimes I can still feel it in my lower back

Still have and my Bebe is 1year and 4month 🙁 so I don't know probably soon will need check my back

The spot where I had mine still hurts now and then and the area is sensitive and that's after 2 years

I always thought my back pain came from the epidural, which to an extent, yes I do believe that plays a big part it in. However with my last epidural the lady who administered it told me it's not the epidural alone that causes it as many people believe but labor itself, all the stress put on your lower back that causes it.

Edit to add: I've had four kids, my youngest is 1 and my back has it's bad days and good days.

Dear lord thank you ladies I’ll have to tell my doc when I go on the 8th didn’t wanna think I was crazy bc I felt like they did an amazing job with the epidural didn’t feel it go in and didn’t feel it come out so I have been sitting here for the past few days wondering if I was crazy or not

ME! And I still have it 6 weeks later 😩

I still have back pain and it will be 7 months on the 26th this month! I hate it!! Wish I never took the epidural!

@saraguinn23, wow really that is ridiculous okay so I’m not going crazy and thinking it was from the epidural as an excuse I will definitely say something to my doctor on the 8th when I go.
