I've had an epi 3 times. You are in so much pain, the needle doesn't matter. You're at the point where you would do anything in order to make it stop. The epi itself feels like someone washing away your pain with ice cold water. I love it OMG😍
The pain of the needles is definately overridden by the pain of labor. I've had one child without an epidural and one with. Definately opt for the epidural!
I had an epidural in place for 3 days after I had to have 1/2 of my lung removed. The pain was horrible until the epidural. It worked fine and I had no complications afterward, thank God.
This is a great 3D animation -Any new Moms-to-be, might want to watch this if they're considering an epidural for pain regulation during child labor. Great job Nucleus.
I’ve had this twice. Just to describe how good it is, the first time my doctor suggested it to me, after overcoming the fear, I accepted. The second time, i specifically asked my doctor for spinal anethesia, both times it went great! I’ve had leg surgery and i can tell you that it’s just a little uncomfortable, you don’t even feel the needle, you just feel a cold and bitter liquid running through your spine. It starts working after 5 to 10 minutes. I hope this helps!
i have a 4 year's old baby boy and a 5 month old baby girl and with both I had a epidural ... the pain of the contraction's are too much ... the pain is to MUCH
the epidural hurt's but after 5 min. u don't feel NOTHING. THANK GOD FOR EPIDURAL ...
I had a spinal, before I went under general anaesthetic. Was great waking up without pain!
Does spinal pain
I definitely would recommend this for anybody I was born with scoliosis and I suffer with sciatica all the time, and this procedure does work and it helps I gotta go for another one soon.
ive had an epidural twice already and the most pain you feel is the pressure bearing down on your back when it is first being placed, the procedure is quick, and you are so excited to see your baby as soon as possible so trust when I say it does go quick! after the surgery is done, you don't feel them taking it out. you will most likely be very tuckered out and will want to sleep for a few hours before breast feeding, this is perfectly fine, baby is not born hungry, he/she is just as tired as you are after the birthing. when you wake up, you wont even feel where the epidural was, all your pain will be concentrated to your fresh surgery area....you will be fine! I have 23 days more left till I have my third procedure done and I can not wait!
Don't you still feel the pain?
That's what I felt too. Only the pain in my incision area
great video! it really doesnt hurt when i had my baby i was more scared about this but it was nothing as long as you have a good doctor
There's a "pop" feeling when the needle goes through the dura.
there’s a WHAT?😃
@@baileymcdaniel6314 literally HUH
Wait what??
Does it hurt?
@@sarahosis yeah it does about 5 times a normal injection..
but as soon as the fluid flows through the spine the pain fades away and your legs become numb after 10-15 seconds 😂😂
Great medical animation on spinal and epidural anesthesia! Well done!!
this is slightly frustrating for someone like me, because i am extremely needle phobic. Looking at the length of that needle, I think i might stick with natural birthing. :( sad but true
I have had two natural births. The epidural scares me more than any amount of pain during labour and delivery. I know of two people who have had spinal fluid leaking out after their epidurals and the doctors had to go back in and plug the hole they made. Terrifying
I tried natural childbirth for 8+ hours and got to only 3cm. It was excruciating. I finally gave it and got the epidural and went to 10cm within an hour. It depends on how your body works. Apparently mine won't dialate without the epidural. It was disappointing but the same thing happened with my second.
So, did you?
i love these animations.
Some people do not tolerate pain well, so an epidural is a viable option for them. As far as needing pain to bond with your baby, well that's a bit over the top. I have done it both ways and bonded with BOTH of my children just fine.
The point is, do what is comfortable for you. There are options if pain is a concern.
My wife just got one for her child birth. Get it if you are afraid of pain. My wife did not want to get it for our first child and we waited so long that she was miserable until she got it. This time we got it almost immediately and they can adjust the dose throughout labor according to pain needs. She was in labor for 18 hours. Thank god for epidurals! My wife hates all needles and can't handle a tiny flu shot but as bad as the epidural looks it's ok.
No, this is called a "wet tap" and can lead to a post dural puncture headache. You cannot sue because when you sign consent for the epidural you are informed that this can happen. You consented for the procedure knowing that this was an associated risk.
From what I have read, they know they hit the dura because there is a distinct "pop" and decreased resistance on the needle.
I guess the needles length tells it all
I have had 3 Spinals (with each of my C-Sections) I never had an issue with any of them. I think getting an IV hurts more than this did. It will react with everybody differently, but because anethiesiologists (sorry if thats spelt wrong) do this more and more everyday, I wouldn't be worried :)
There are small chances of problems happening with either the epidural or the event for which you are getting the epidural. In either case you don't want to be an hour's drive from the nearest operating room when seconds count.
She said, the local anesthetic would just "decrease" pain from neddlestick...
Damn.. It must hurts..
I’ve had 2 epidurals and still felt every tugging and pulling during my c section for my 3rd i had a spinal.. ohh man the best feeling of my life! I actually fell a sleep during my c section.
I felt intense pulling and tugging with my 3 rd c section and I had a combined spinal and epidural
I had spinal for my first cs and epidural for my second one. Spinal was much better in a way that you don't feel anything. While epidural makes you feel everything except the pain. I could feel the knife, all the tugging and pulling with epidural. This time I'm thinking about getting spinal block.
I have been direct spinal anaesthesia back in 2018, after a terrible motorcycle accident, I'm going for total knee replacement surgery, it was deep needle injection & your lower body feel total paralyzed, it was my most haunting feeling even it was temporary, i cannot think what quadriplegic paralysis people feels for life time, i appreciate my health & safety more after that
Hello! Im going under a procederé under spinal anesthesia too. Did the procedure of the anesthesia hurted?
@@katherine001erazo it hurt when first prick, but after it getting numb other injection you feels nothing in sensation, the first needle prick hurt a bit, but its fine
@@rolandhazuki8787 thank you!
Hi! Just wanted to know when shall a patient regain consciousness after spinal anaesthesia surgery?
@@sfyie you don't passed out you awake all the time but feel numb waist down and temporary paralyzed cannot moved your body for a couple of hours, otherwise you will be fine 👍
While having my first child, i had this done, i was singing praises to whomever came up with epidurals, but I'm tall so the anestiologist (sp?) had plenty to work with, but it is gravuty sensitive. Sleep on one side for long and that side will become heavily numb with the other side unnumbed. If yoy have a good pain doctor, these things are no problem. Had one my second child to, but they were to late, baby passed before it kicked in
hi sharon! i gave birth to my first child and have used an epidural. i was really in pain that time and can't afford to not take it. it was a great relieved when they injected me. but as you said there's a risks using it. i just hope it won't show in the future. but really thanks for the info and i really appreciate it. =)
What prevents the medicine from going all the way up your spinal cord during spinal anesthesia? Wouldn't it just numb the whole body.
It did for me lol. I had a spinal for my c-section and I couldn’t even move my arms to hold my baby. They had to prop my arms up on pillows. It was a crazy feeling. I sometimes wonder if not being able to feel my baby after I had her contributed to my ppd.
I had a surgery last week and it was done through spinal anesthesia. I was like "Hey Doc , I can feel it's running inside my spinal chord and it hurts!" The Doctor then chuckled and said "Relax ,you are going to fine "
Hello! Did you feel any pain while applying the Anaesthesia?
Hi! Just wanted to know when shall a patient regain consciousness after done with surgery, given spinal anesthesia? Please reply!
I've had epidural for knee surgery and my body from the waist down was completely insensitive to anything. When the surgery was over it took about one hour for the sensation to return, meantime I was thirsty as hell but forbidden to drink. It was sheer torture.
As a woman I wouldn't want my baby to come out of me without me feeling anything.
It's true that we should allow gravity to do its work in childbirth, like other mammals. It would be over in a blink and painless.
great video
I was one of the rare cases of a drop in blood pressure after an epidural. It was my third delivery and third epidural. No problems previously . That tank in blood pressure was NOT pleasant especially while pushing out a baby.
Kari Kidd ohhhhhhhhhhh u lucky really
Hi! Just wanted to know when shall a patient regain consciousness after done with spinal anesthesia surgery?
i'm thinking of having epidural injection on my delivery... but after i watched this video, it feels like it's to painful getting injected. but they say its good to have it so the pain for giving birth won't bother you at all...
on my case.. the hospital gave me a paper saying wether you want to have an epidural or not... it explains in the paper the risks and possible side effects that you might get afterwards.
Everyone talking about how the epidural needle pain is taken away from the pain of child birth. Yea how about a freaking c section when you AREN'T in labor.
Epidurals are great. Specially when you have that first baby i had one with my son. The pain of childbirth is like a root canel with no pain meds. ladies if you are wanting to have a baby educate yourself. Lamze is still good for the first part of labor go through lamze because the class educates what your body is doing during labor and after labor. Also there are great websites and books. Educate yourself. But drugs are great when going through labor.
Epidural anaesthesia lost of feeling ur legs ? Yes or no
I have experienced this 3 times
actually it hurts really bad, but only the local anesthetic, besides the pacient has been sedated previously to this procedure so she doesn´t feel much pain. but still someone has to grab her, otherwise she'll move
thank you and appreciate your reply... kaiser, the hospital gave me an option wether to have an epidural or not and all the negative or side effects are also written on the paper. just in case i can't take the pain on my labour, i would definitely have the epidural. but hoping for my baby's safety. my due is near approaching... i feel excited for my baby and feel very nervous at the same time.
Now the trouble maker is a teen 🙃🙂
Sounds like a postdural puncture headache, you shouldnt normally get one unless your wife had spinal anaethesia (as it involves dural puncture), or there was a hickup in the adminitration of an epidural involving puncture of the duramater.
If you're telling me the epidural doesn't take away all the pain.. then tell me how women have c-sections without feeling a thing yet they're being cut open inside and out.....
Ask for a spinal block. It's really painless and you are awake during the entire cesarean procedure
M W vaginal birth protect the baby from infections and need of antibiotics in the future and the first immune boost it receives is from mothers vaginal canal microbiomes .
An alternative is to insert a tissue into the both canal post labor and rub the baby with it. Don’t allow washing the baby right away . It needs the life saving bacteria
@@gratitude5740 not everyone can have a vaginal birth
Epidural 3 times the 3rd time could not move my legs for almost 24 hours. It did its job but i might think about it if i ever needed to have it again.
same as you, i will never ever try it again👍👍
And the pain in the head and neck 😓
Hi! Just wanted to know when shall a patient regain consciousness after done with surgery given spinal anesthesia?
Epidural anaesthesia feeling lost of legs? Yes or no
Can someone tell me the pros and cons of both in a surgery?
Spinal will hurt you more or less and if you woke up still in effect of the anesthesia you'll be afraid because you are paralyzed from chest down
May I ask if you are a board certified Anesthesiologist why are you not telling the true risks of epidurals,Not glossing over them quickly, Do you know just one dropelet of blood can cause Arachnoiditis,Once the dura is niked the Complications of that lead to Arachnoiditis which is a life sentance of Chronic Pain,
I had this and I cried :( because it hurts :(.. For me it feels like pressing your bruise hardly
Thought I was the only one. Pressing a bruise real hard is a good description of it :(
Does Epidural leave any scar? or can doctor see the old scar on the back while taking X-RAY?
Krupa T Bhat yes it does , I got epidural for child birth and it left 2 marks on my back
@HelenoPaiva
know i know everything i need to know about anesthesia
thanks for the information.
also i HATE sedition so much
i've had it done
Research the risks and benefits to of any procedure to both the baby and the mother, before allowing any medical intervention during labour and childbirth.
If I didn't get the epidural neither of my kids would be here now. I could not dialate without it. Tried for 8+ hours and only got to 3cm. Barely 1 hour after epidural I was 10 cm...Same thing happened with my second.
think of it this way Most Mothers who have their Children recieve all the injections MMr BcG etc etc, When the Child develpoes a lump under the injection site thats natural scar tissue it forms as a protection for where the needle went in, After a few days that swelling goes down thats normal, But when that Epidural goes into your spinal cord and niks its the healing properties the scar tissue form the protection its worse than that lump under the skin
exelent animation congratulations!!!!!
im doin this but under “twilight” aka half anesthesia so i wont be awake. i dont think im nervous but i dont think it’ll numb the pain of 3 herniated discs
Had this :((.. it hurts so much.. I cried.. But when I realized that I had to it then I'd just bear with it
Did you have it for child birth or for surgery?
@HelenoPaiva
I was asking because i've had few surgeries but i've only been given general anesthesia, not spinal or epidural anesthesia
i am getting thisdone in two weeks myne is just the epidermal adn a steroid they are trying to heal my back without surgery if it doesnt work i need surgery and im terrified...
If I was EVER to give birth I would want to do it at home with a midwife. I would be so much more comfortable. Hospitals are kinda scary.
Theres pros and cons for both. Hospitals have professionals that can act if theres an emergency that threatens the mother or baby's life. Its usually recommended for women that had a difficult and or high risk pregnancy. If your pregnancy is easy and all good, you can try a home birth, its all up to the person birthing of course. But mid wifes are not professional doctors that know what to do incase of an emergency. Home births could be more relaxing and feel more secure but hospitals have better chance of saving lives in case something goes wrong.
I had an epidural put In during my operation and I wore it for several days until they removed it and my catheter for physical therapy
Is it painful when removing
Epidural anaesthesia lost feelings ur lower part is it true!
@enelniv I have just replied to this thread explaining the risks of having the epidural,I feel you might like to have a look back at what I wrote, While I am not against epidurals in the right situation, but when in the high pains of labour you are told to lie perfectly still so that the epidural can be inserted, this is not always possible, hope it helps you to undertsnd thew risks sharon
Watch out for that spinal headache ! head flat - you must Reply #83
because what happens is the scar tissue gets caught up in all the nerves that branch out of your spinal cord, causing Arachnoiditis,which continues to spread up your spinal cord as each year passes Please please educate yourselves about the real dangers of epidurals , Would you really give yourself a lifetime of chronic pain just to have pain relief for a few hours through the labour I know If I had of educated myself to the real dangers I would never of let them give me an epidural, Sharon
Thanks for viedos then I went to more videos sir
I hated the epi, but, afterward (during labor) i was able to NOT VOMIT. And to actually enjoy the whole birth process!
Great animation! Thanks!
But, there should be something about what could happen if the spinal fluid leaks out. (which can happen)
i got an epidural for the birth of my son but my sciatica injury messed up the anesthesia effects on my left leg... i could still feel and move my left side. it was so painful all the pain went to my left side where my sciatic nerve was damaged... so if you have sciatica i dont recommend the epidural...
Is this the one instead of steroid,my pain doctor is giving me anastetic spine injection without the steroid
Everyone knows that anesthesia puts us to sleep so we won’t feel any pain
i had this 2 days ago for my toes operation after this you will feel so itchy
I hade an apidural when i was going to have baby 2 yeras ago in UK but it toke 40 min and later it didn't worked and until now i have terrible back pain, i don't recomend anyone because it's a risk which can let you in pain forever, i am a very hard working person but now i can't work more then 30 minutes.
Hi! Just wanted to know when shall a patient regain consciousness after spinal anaesthesia surgery?
also wouldn't that still hurt
the needle in your back
@HelenoPaiva
so they keep giving you more and more while your knocked out?
I am that one in a 100 or so with the complcations, but trust me Arachnoiditis is no walk in the park in fact i would give birth every day of my life for the rest of my life to have my spinal cord back to the way it was before the epidural on the Birth of my Son he is 19 now and believe me you really must look up the complications of epidurals before you agree to having one,
The short answer is that the mother SHOULDN'T be lying down.
It's been proven that a woman that walks around during labor and does as her body tells her is most productive.
She may want to have him while squatting, while sitting up in a tub, leaning over the bed. Gravity will help tons! Baby going down is much easier than baby going forward and up.
It's difficult for the SURGICAL doc to squat under a mom to catch the baby. Therefore, it's easier if she's on her back. It's counterproductive.
nothing wrong with natural birth its best if you can anyways, but if you DO need an epi you NEVER seen the needle
very nice
i grew up watching your videos ia ma doctor now
vivek panuganti axha g..... pgl Doctor 😄
Nice.
@sharongillece
so is giving general anesthesia better for you
very nice and eassy
I had spinal anesthesia or Epidural . The pain is so fucking strong when needle is in your back bone!
Hi! Just wanted to know when shall a patient regain consciousness after spinal anesthesia surgery?
After how long I can take off that bandage?
Es war sehr wichtig für mich.....
this helps me a lot thank you!!! how i download them
There are occasions when a hospital would be necessary. If the baby is lethargic, not breathing, or if there's hemorrhage. In which case, one could call in advance to have an ambulance on call. Yes, you can actually do that. However, statistically, you have more of a chance of your baby dying at the hospital than at home. THIS IS A STATISTICAL FACT.
Wait so does the injection before the epidural numb u to not feel it or does it just decrease of?
the injection before is for reducing the pain when the needle for spinal/epidural anesthesia comes in the skin and surrounding area.
@HelenoPaiva
ok know there is one thing idon't understand about anesthesia. (the one that makes you go to sleep fully) How do you wake back up from the anesthesia?
With farts 💨💨
Due in a week
Nina brown how did it go!
@@giannaglossy868 it was phenomenally zeautiful ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ Zhank Zou for asking
Exactly! :)
ive got leg disabilty from the epidural shud be band the NHS cover this up
Paralysis???
I'm having a spinal anesthetic for major ankle surgery. I'm wondering how long after the operation I'll get to feel again
Does the big needle hurt?
Just lots of pressure, not actual pain. It's really not that bad
taking epidural is better when u cannot bare the pain
how about explaining the risks of these interventions?
Does it hurt when the needle goes in
Erwin Reid yes
No. I don't think that women should go through with a NECESSARY Cesarean Section with no anesthetic.
I believe a Cesarean should only be used for emergencies. As stated before, it disallows the natural "Love Hormone" to be released by mom. That's my Pitocin is needed. It's a synthetic (fake) version of the "Love Hormone".
I never stated that the epidural takes the pain away completely. However, I don't understand the point you're trying to make. I simply stated it may be best to avoid it.
But I had a hip surgery when I was 3 and I was still put under.
who tf invented this
You may have possibly understood my dissuasion of the epidural to the necessity of pain.
Pain itself is not necessary. However, when using an epidural, a mom looses a lot of feeling in the pelvic area. This disallows much of the natural dilation of the cervix. Therefore, hindering the massive Oxytocin release.
Many women who have had epidurals can attest to having Pitocin given to them to induce labor. Again, it is a fake version of Oxytocin, the hormone that should do the inducing itself.
@HelenoPaiva
then how do they make the medical decision of which kind of anesthesia to give
Depends on how long you need the spinal or epidural to last. Sometimes you just need it for the immediate procedure and other times you may need it for days.
So you can either do a single show of local anaesthetic which might last 2-6 hours.
Or use a PCA (patient-controlled-analgesia, where they press the button to give a small volume of local anaesthetic) or a slow continuous infusion via a very small tube into the epidural space.
@HelenoPaiva
whats local anesthesia
I get about 50 lumbar punctures a year. THEY SUCK!
So sorry you have to go through that. May the healing of God be upon you
The thought of a catheter being left in place freaks me the fuck out. Like it's a direct line to possibly introduce bacteria right into that area. OMG and if the area isn't completely sterlie. Or you move. Isn't it scary that every Dr that does these has a first time they do it. I would NOT want to be someones first time. Holy fuck could you imagine? I'm looking to have a baby or surgery not commit my body to science and education here. I'm sure people are okay with that and that's great but I'd be freaking out of some newbie came at my back with a needle and I don't care who's feelings I hurt.
No thank you
Нет спасибо
Some women have had this epidural/pitocin process happen multiple times. One leads to the necessity of the other. It becomes a vicious, drugged up circle.
With natural childbirth, without the use of an epidural, Pitocin is not needed. Mom releases enough Oxytocin to help with the dilation.
In a hospital there's screaming "push". This is counterproductive at best. Mom needs to have her own time to deliver the baby. It's a natural process and shouldn't be coached by a doc with a busy schedule.
