I had an epidural shot as well and I was able to walk just fine afterwards as well the only thing now im not sure if its from the shot since it was like in 2010 but I am pregnant again and my lower back just started to hurt some but its tolerable. hope that helps
I had an epidural and could walk right after birth! My back was sore for bout a week after delivery but was completely tolerable. I'm back to normal now!
I had two epidurals with no problem. There is a risk though.
My uncle's wife had an epidural and an emergency csection and she says she can't actually remember seeing or holding her baby when she was born
I had one and I was up walking right after giving birth! Down side is I have the worst back pain ever and it has lasted almost 2 years and has made this pregnancy a living hell! I can't do one load of laundry without barely being able to walk afterwards! Going natural this time! Never doing an epidural again!!
