So glad I used the Search button and found this thread!
Right now we are just getting started TTC. I'm 30 and had surgery for scoliosis when I was 16. I don't have any limitations from it, and it seems to have mostly corrected my curvature so that most people don't notice. Today at the big "pre-natal, go take these vitamins and do this, this, and this" gyno appointment my doctor advised me to consult with an anesthesiologist regarding whether I can have an epidural. I don't know if I want an epidural yet, of course.
I'm fused from T4-T11 and my dr says she thinks they go in for the epidural lower than that, like in the lumbar. I think I should be OK because my rods end much higher than that. I am wondering if I should go in anyway. Does anyone know where, ballpark figure, they usually place an epidural? I'm not too worried about it yet.
I do sometimes get muscle spasms around my mid-back scar area when I'm doing a lot of activity... has anyone had anything like that in pregnancy?
