For me I was lucky, I did not have any side effects after the injection and now almost 18months post-partum, I don't feel anything different in my body as well. The pain is bearable and it was that split moment when the needle comes in contact with your lower back. If you were to ask me what is the most painful experience during labour, I would say it's when they check your cervix for dilation, that is the most painful process I ever been through. (I have a very high threshold for pain but I couldn't take that). Like Stephanie, I never regretted my decision in taking Epidural as I can really enjoy the process better.
