She had an emergency c-section, so from what i've read here, I'm guessing that gave her the pain relief in the thigh before they decided to perform an emergency c/s. I wonder why they refused to give her an epi though? I had a narcotic injected into the epidural space when I was in labour after the original epidural wore off, it didn't work though and I couldn't have the proper epidural fluid after that! Y

My mother said the same thing to me, ren, "It'd be great if you had a c-section, that way you won't change 'down there' " hehe. (She had a natural birth herself but really should've had a c-section due to previous surgery, her obstetrician at the time just, well, made a plain ol' bad judgement call - every other Dr my mother saw said she'd need a c-section).
