Anepidural is time released meds and it can last as long as your anesthesiologist sets it to, from a few hours to a few days. I had complications with my C-Section, and they left my epidural in for almost 3 days. That is rare, but it was easier to deliver my meds that way since it was already in place, and the easiest way to relieve my pain after the surgery. They hook you up to a little box that is programed to release little amounts of pain relief at a time. When the box is about to run out of meds, a little alarm sounds, and a nurse will "refill it" with more meds.

How long after epidural does a woman give birth?

There is no set time after an epidural that you deliver. There are many factors that go into delivery. It depends on how dialated you are when you receive the epidural Also, how fast and strong your contractions are. You can be in labor for quite a while after you get your epidural. The joy is that you don't mind it so much anymore.
