Epidurals and claustrophobia

Crystal

Any moms out there have claustrophobia but got the epidural and were okay?

I'm really claustrophobic. If I can't move a part of my body I freak out. A numb mouth from dental work is no problem but the idea of being numb from the waist down terrifies me.

Also, can you tell how hard you are pushing?
