Babies: 0 - 3 Months

does your epidural spot still feel weird?

it doesn't hurt, per se. just feels like a separation in my spine. 

i should say they effed my epi and i ended up with a spinal fluid leak that required a second epi and a blood patch to fix.  so this may be because of that, but it bugs me that i can feel the spot. 

just a weird pulling sensation, almost like it's the weakest part of my back.

Re: does your epidural spot still feel weird?

  • Yes - and it's been 3 months. Just sometimes I get a weird sensation back there and then it's gone.

  • I didn;t have complications that you had but I am 4mths post epdiural and I still feel it some days.  Most days that I feel it is because it is really cold out or my back is just sore.  My cousin had a baby 5 years ago and she still feels it from time to time.  If it really concerns you, I would talk to you doctor about it....in the end it's your spine and I wouldn;t mess with that.
  • I just had one yesterday (my 2nd) and have no idea where it even was. My back feels completely normal.

    If I could feel the spot (or anything different around it), I think I'd ask about it.

  • I've been having some 'sensation' in my epi site too and I asked my dr at my 6 wk appt.  He checked it and said it's fine, sometimes it takes a while for it to 'heal' b/c there's lack of blood flow there.  With my 1st epi (w/ DS) I had no 'issues' like this.  ha!

     

  • Yes! It hurts a lot sometimes. My friend's kids are 2 and 4 and she says hers still hurts sometimes too.

  • I still get a tingling sensation there every now and then.
