[quote=Anonymous]The first anesthesiologist I saw while in labor also said no epidural for medical reasons. I was having back labor and an induction and the midwives got the head anesthesiologist to come in for a second opinion, who did the epidural himself. However, as much as my labor would have sucked and probably ended in a csection without pain relief, I would much rather have a doctor make a judgment call against doing a procedure that s/he doesn't feel comfortable with. It sucks, I really truly get it, but it is not medically necessary to have an epidural for pain relief. [/quote]
