The doctor asked me how the epi was and I told him that I still had some sensation but that it had taken the edge of dramatically. I went from screaming to simple "ows" during contractions and it also stopped my body from bearing down. He asked if I would like a higher dose but I said no because i still wanted to feel my son. It did wear off rather quickly each time but my midwife topped it up for me each time I asked her to.
I did infact get up and walk, it was a long labour and there was no way I wanted a catheter so i had to get up to use the toilet lol.
