Was my epidural put in wrong?

Lacey
I had my baby 5 months ago but now that I'm thinking about it I think the anesthesiologist may have messed up somewhere. I still felt all of my contractions after the epidural even though my legs and pelvis were numb, but they may have been because I waited until I was at 8cm to get one. My back was also completely covered in blood but no one told me that until after delivery. Do you think he did something wrong or is that normal?
