Hihi, I'm hoping some of the moms here can shed some light on epidural. I've heard it causes backache but I don't know if that's true? Two of my friends had epidural and neither complain of backache, although one thinks it slowed down her labour A LOT (her labour took 33 hours or something crazy like that?!). One other friend went without epidural but she said it was very painful :/ I'm torn... hope for some advice that can help me decide soon! Thanks!!

Btw I wanted to add that my labour took about 29 hours too, so I'm not sure if there's any correlation? There may or may not be. I've heard that typically the labours are the longest for the first child lol 😅
Hi, I had an epidural for my delivery earlier this year and so far so good. I don't think it has anything to do with backache... I've also read some articles previously that debunked it as a myth. Hope this helps!
