We use k-Pads or get a blanket out of the blanket warmer (we have both adult & infant), as well as ice packs for their peri area. Ours are made out of condoms with a mesh cloth wrapped around to...
Remember that getting an epidural does not make you weak or afraid, we don't ever judge if someone gets an epidural. I'm sure your OB nurses will keep you well informed in what is going on, just try...
