my story is similar to janie's. the epi didnt hurt, the drip they put in first hurt more, but the epi was minimal at the most. then it was topped up for emergency c/s to a block and that wore off pretty quick. the epi remained in for about 36 hours which they gave me pethidine through for pain relief rather than tablets till they took it out. goodluck, im sure you will be fine, positive thinking and all that. it really didnt seem to hurt much at all and i had very little pain from labour so it wasnt like i had that to distract me from the epi pain.
