[quote=Anonymous]In terms of being too early to get one, you could get one later. That said, with my first I was 3 cm 10 days before she was born. When I checked in I was 4. They said they’d check on me in an hour / find the anesthesiologist etc with the logic that there was no rush since I’d gone only 1 cm in over a week. Well there was an error that delayed the anesthesiologist and I was delivering about 2 hrs later. With my second (different hospital/ doctor) I asked for an epidural again. My doctor said “you’re between 3 and 4 cm. Would you like to wait so you can walk around or labor in the shower or would you like it now?” I said “now” and, even with things working smoothly, it was prob 30-45 mins until it happened so I’m glad I did. If you asked too early (but were far enough to be admitted) I think they’d just offer it a little later. [/quote]
