I had an epidural 7 weeks ago when having my little boy and my back is still achy, is this normal for it to still feel dull achy 7 weeks on? Also still got numb ache in my bum when I go to bed.

Not sure it would be all down to the epidural, but yeah sounds normal, your body will ache and feel odd in places you didn't know existed for a few more weeks. i had baaaaad spd and couldn't walk properly for at least 3/4 months after and had proper back pain.
Keep an eye on it, try geeeentle movements and stretches, if no improvement speak to docs or midwife x
