tulips: epidural side effects is it can cause backaches.. so it may be the epi, and the weight gain from the pregnancy.
a tip, if u get epi for ur 2nd one, after delivery, they usually ask u to walk as soon as possible right? Well, after the epi, lie on ur back fo at least 6 hours. becos its like a lumbar puncture (procedure to get spinal fluid for testing), and the nursing care after that is the patient needs to lie on back for at least 6 hours, if not will get back ache and headache one..
