[quote=Anonymous]I used to listen to the Birth Hour and there would occasionally be someone on who would note they couldn't have an epidural, but they usually knew that in advance. Seems odd that this wasn't communicated to your friend until after the induction was started when they could have strategized to avoid her being in so much pain. That sounds like bad coordination/communication on the part of the medical team. Epidural analgesia can have serious side effects even among totally healthy people so I have to think it's not unheard of to risk someone out.[/quote]
