Epidural right time

Hi mummies out there, can i know when will i be allowed to ask the doc or nurses for an epidural during my labour? Once I'm dilated how many cm will they allow me to get an epidural?#pleasehelp #advicepls #1stimemom #firstbaby

I was 3-4cm when admitted! Water bag broke! I felt 0 pain and was using my phone till the moment I pushed. Nurses didn’t bother to ask me if I needed epidural cause I was that relaxed! Dont think so much it might not be painful like you expect it to be! I didn’t even feel a single cramps! I pushed 1.5 hour after admission!
