Frequently Asked Questions

What is painless delivery?

Painless delivery, also known as epidural anesthesia, involves administering pain-relieving medication (an epidural) into the epidural space of the spine to alleviate labor pain while allowing the mother to actively participate in the birthing process.

How does epidural anesthesia work during labor?

Epidural anesthesia involves injecting a local anesthetic and sometimes a narcotic into the epidural space, blocking pain signals from the lower half of the body. It provides pain relief while allowing the mother to remain conscious and able to push during labor.

Is epidural anesthesia safe for both the mother and the baby?

Epidural anesthesia is generally considered safe when administered by trained medical professionals. However, like any medical procedure, there are potential risks and side effects. The benefits and risks should be discussed with your healthcare provider.

When is the best time to get an epidural during labor?

The timing of getting an epidural varies for each woman. It's typically offered once labor is active and contractions are established. Discuss with your healthcare provider to decide the best timing based on your situation.

Can I move or walk after getting an epidural?

Epidurals may affect mobility, but you can still adjust your position in bed and usually move your legs. Walking is limited or not recommended due to potential loss of sensation and muscle weakness.

What are alternative pain management options for labor?

Alternatives to epidural include breathing techniques, relaxation exercises, hydrotherapy (using water for pain relief), and systemic pain medications. Discuss these options with your healthcare provider.

Can I eat or drink after getting an epidural?

In many cases, you might be limited to clear fluids. Full meals are generally avoided due to the potential need for a cesarean section under general anesthesia, which requires an empty stomach.

How long does an epidural last during labor?

The duration of pain relief varies, but epidurals can provide continuous relief for several hours. In some cases, a catheter may be placed for prolonged pain management.
