Do epidural mess your back up ?

Question

And will you feel the needle?

Answer

I've had two... just a pinch and the pain doesn't even compare to the contractions you're going through!  I've never had back issues since.

Answer

My back (where the epidural was) was tender for a month or so. To me, it was so worth it. Being in labor 27 hours, I was able to rest and prepare for delivery. I only felt a pinch when he was placing the epidural.

Answer

I had an all natural birth with my second child... my first I had an epidural. all I can say is don't get it.

Answer

My back hurt for a few months after but I wouldn't say it messed it up. You feel a little pinch when they numb it up.

Answer

I’ve had 2 for both my boys and hardly even felt a pinch, no problems after either! Good luck!!

Key thing = do what you feel is right for you. 
To epidural or not to epidural. That is the question.

Answer

Answer

I had one with my first and now my back gets so messed up when I do anything involving my back for too long. If I hold my son and rock him to sleep at night and it takes longer than 15 minutes I lay in bed with my lower back spasming where the epidural was placed. My dr told me they put it in the wrong place and messed up my back so I have gone natural for all of my other births. My back is really bad after I give birth for a while now. I would say not to get one but that's from my experience. It sucks to lay in bed trying to get comfortable and fall asleep while your back spasms and you are in terrible pain for 15-30 minutes...

Answer

I’ve had back pain since I had my epidural 6 years ago...and the epidural didn’t even work. So I messed my back up and still had to go thru labor in extreme pain.
