Benefits:

- An epidural provides a route for very effective pain relief that can be used throughout your labor.

- The anesthesiologist can control the effects by adjusting the type, amount, and strength of the medication. This is important because as your labor progresses and your baby moves down into your birth canal, the dose you’ve been getting might no longer be adequate, or you might suddenly have pain in a different area.

- The medication only affects a specific area, so you’ll be awake and alert during labor and birth. And because you’re pain-free, you can rest (or even sleep!) as your cervix dilates and conserve your energy for when it comes time to push.

- Unlike with systemic narcotics, only a tiny amount of medication reaches your baby.

- Once the epidural is in place, it can be used to provide anesthesia if you need a c-section or if you’re having your tubes tied after delivery.
