anaesthesia for post-birth stitch
So I have a question.. ik epidural is a thing during birth. Firstly, if someone is on it, does an epidural also help when they stitch you up, 2ndly if you're not on it, can you still ask for anaesthesia for the stitching (like, please, idk, knock me out), or is it always as usual: "suck it up, it's painful, and we don't care what you scream"
