epidural?

To those who got the epidural did it just work on one side of your body more than the other? My right leg and all is completely numb I can't move it but on my left side my leg is somewhat numb but I can still move and feel certain things and I'm feeling my contractions in my left groin area. Just wondering if anyone else experienced this.

With my epidural it completely didn't work. Apparently my spine narrows and it would not take to the meds. We tried re doing it twice and moving it but it would only numb my legs...barely! So I went through labor cold turkey then ended up having a c section that I had to be put to sleep for because of my epidural not working
