Epidural back pain

Yes!!! It’s normal but go to a chiropractor, if you can. A lot of the pain can come from the hips so they can show you stretches to help alleviate that back pain.

Yeah, that’s pretty normal. It’s probably partially nerve damage too.

Mine was like that after I had my daughter I’m still sore, but I do like the chiropractor

This is why I’m scared of the epidural 😭

I’ve had 5 epidurals. Going to the chiro when I was pregnant helped a bit but yes, I need to go back. The postpartum aches and pains in the lower back and legs . 😌 I hope you feel better soon!

Thank God I don’t feel this pain

@Xowi most hospitals have other options but I had just moved and hadn’t got a OB and I had to get rushed to the first hospital and they only had epidurals I originally wanted the gas thing

@Xowi ain’t nothing to be scared of an epidural for labor without it is worse. It’s just a little pinch in your back and then a burn and if the guy does it right or here she does it right you’ll be fine nerve damages typical it was a little bit of pain afterwards.

@Samantha i genuinely don’t know how and im not saying this in a “braggy” way but with my twins i was in pain but i didn’t even realize it was labor, i showed up to the ER fully dilated and +1 station but ended up being put to sleep for an emergency c section. Now I just fight in my mind all the time about if I should get one next time since i didn’t realize I was even in labor last time, but my next pregnancy could be completely different and I could feel everything. I just don’t want back pain while dealing with two kids and a new baby🥲

@Xowi each pregnancy is going to be different. My daughter I knew I was in labor. It felt like period cramps still got real bad by the time I was 6 cm I was begging for that epidural

@Phyllis I have been looking into the gas and I think that’s what I would like too for next time. But I’m sorry that you have to deal with the pain for now 🫶🏼
