Hi all, hope u dont mind me gate crashing for a while, just popped over from ante-natal clubs. I have a question for all those who have had an epidural, Im due in 4wks and having not had the best experience first time round, i am absolutley cacking myself to say the least. I have decided to op for an epidural this time as i want total pain relief!! but my query is, does it stop the burning sensation you get when the head crowns? I remember that so vividly, and it was, for me, the worst part of labour!! and that was ten years ago, sad eh, ,lol.
please give me some pointers!!
