Ive meet alot of girls who say the same thing after getting the epi... and out off all that have had a natural birth they never have any back problems.
If u have scoliosis it will hurt to sit up straight bt the epi cld have made it more painful bt if u dont get scoliosis treatd it will cause u alot of problems
Yes that could definitely be. I've heard of a couple women who had back pain after. :-(
for the scoliosis, please see a massage therapist or massage practitioner. I am one myself, and would suggest every woman and baby to get checked after about 6 weeks after delivery in general. Things will be better after a massage. Especially if you have a scoliosis. All the best to you ;-)
With my first epi I had back pains in that area also. After my second epi almost a yr & a half later, it seemed to heal my back pains. So, this is baby #3 I plan to have another epi.
Yeah I had the epi and my back hurt for several months after. I had to exercise to strengthen it. Also did not packs and rested alot and it helped
i hear a lot of women complain even years after they got the ep. they say you get back problems after when you lay down and sit up. it could be but i think its just the ep all together that caused it. i hope you feel better. get it looked at as well.
and I dont see it as messing my back up I see it as a side effect from the epidural, I wanted a painless delivery so I guess thats what I have to live with now. That's how I see it.
With my son I got the epidural and I know what you mean sometimes when I bend over when im getting up it hurts, or like when its cold but not all the time. I had my son almost 6 years ago so I don't think its going to go away.
Could have been. It's one of the possible side effects listed. I would also suggest seeing a chiropractor. Labor and the strain of delivery could also have messed with your back.
Never had an epi but I'm sure it probably has something to do with that. Isn't that where your spine is like an S shape?
