Con-you can't feel anything so it can result in a longer labor,  difficulty pushing, or ultimately a C-section also in my experience it takes a lot longer to recover from giving birth if you have an epidural. They poked me about 18 times with each one before they finally got it in the right place and I had terrible spinal headaches for about a month afterward. I have had 3 children without an epidural and 2 with and my births without them were amazing compared to with one but it is different for everyone.
