re: Was I really too late? Epidural

Quoting nursemaya (12weeks):" <blockquote><b>Quoting Angel [Mariah's Mommy]:</b>" I was at 9.5 when they gave me ... [snip!] ... It was your first kid that's different. You likely had hours until you delivered going by average pushing times"

I ended up starting to push roughly 2 hrs after I think.

I think I depends on the hospital.

Hence why I said here and did not say all places

I had to have one at 9.5 as well

I was almost 8 cm when I got to the hospital and they were gonna give me one. But I had to get bloodwork done to check my platelets and by the time I was cleared to get it I was 10 cm and baby was partway out along with my intact bag of waters!

And how many kids you've had and previous length of labors and how fast you are moving now.

I had an epidural at 8 cm.
