In today's episode our host Mon educates us on everything you need to know about epidurals. Through a midwives eyes, she talks us through what it is, how it's inserted, the monitoring involved as well as the potential risks associated with epidurals. She answers some of the commonly asked questions about epidurals as well as shares some of her own positive, lighthearted epidural stories as a midwife.
Like always Mon's aim in this episode is to educate you about this topic to try and make you more aware of what having an epidural involves but also encourages you to always seek your own medical advice from your healthcare provider as every hospital has their own specific policies and procedures to follow.
