4wks pp and pain in epidural site?

Kim-n-Eric

I just noticed a few days ago some mild pain in my back where my epidural was placed. My LO is 4 weeks so I'm a little curious/worried as to why it has started up now. Anyone else experience this?

I am almost 4 weeks pp and I was just telling my husband that I feel the same way. I am also curious as to why it seems like it has just started to hurt.

I had an epi with my first and had mild pain and a numb feeling for over a year at he injection site. It would come and go. Annoying but I've been told its normal.

I had back pain and spinal headaches for MONTHS after having an epidural with my 3rd baby. I was also told it was normal, and that the anesthesiologist might have "clipped" a nerve. That was the biggest reason why I planned pain med free births with my last 2, I figured the pain from labor goes away much quicker then that epidural pain I experienced!

I have no pain at the epidural site this time, however after DS I had mild pain/discomfort for several months.  It went away after about six months.  I was expecting it this time, but I guess I got lucky.
