Epidural

Can mothers who have taken the epidural share the experience of administering the epidural? Is it painful? My pain threshold is very low :( At how many cm dilation do you administer it? Any side effects?

I took it when I was like 3cm dilated. The contraction was causing me pain so I honestly can’t felt the epidural. I feel there’s a needle but by then I already very faint

I cant feel the pain of the needle as the contraction is too strong n already damn pain. I was administer at 2cm after that will keep trembling till i gave birth.

I didn't feel much, maybe cos I was feeling so much pain from contractions. I was trembling the whole time after it was administered. But OK after giving birth

It's like ant bite, for a few hours of pain relief! Worth it but don't over administer it as the recovery time may be longer

It's just like a normal jab, no pain coz labour pains is 10x more painful (to me)🤣

Choose a good anaesthetic. Then its painless. You pay for what you get 😝

I took it at 2cm. I can't tahan the pain already) :
