Epidurals experience

Hi mummies, as I am approaching deliver date, I am getting cold feet and scared. Can anyone share with me if administering epidural hurt?

I just delivered on Mon and epidural was great relief. nurse helped to hold me gently in position for the anesthetist to do local anesthesia, felt uncomfortable but was way better than contraction. he then inserted the tube, which I couldn't feel much of it other than the "electric shock" feeling. but I think my body is not responding well to the drug, I vomited several times after the delivery. Generally, it was way better than what I expected, and I believe u can do it too:) smooth delivery!
