How to push with epidural?

How do you push with an epidural?

My last labour was natural on gas and air and I vowed never to do that again

They’ve offered me an epidural from start of induction but how do you physically push with an epidural not knowing the sensation to push for?

I really struggled with my first to push with only half an epidural taking let alone a full one

You just push as best you can. I couldn't even feel myself pushing but I still gave it my all. They told me to push like I was constipated so I did, no idea if I pooed myself or not but it'd be a miracle if I didn't.
