Epidural not work second time?

Maia • 💙💜

Has anyone had experience with epidural not working and then not working for second labor? I would like to labor for as long as I can without epidural but I also want to have the chance to get it if I want it. My first birth it didn’t work, it just went straight to my legs so I was stuck in the bed, unable to move writhing in pain. I want to avoid this but also want pain relief as well. Any help is appreciated.
