This clinical trial will compare two different approaches to epidural analgesia during labor to see which approach leads to higher patient satisfaction after delivery. Primary aim: determine whether one approach produces greater postpartum maternal satisfaction. Secondary aims: compare pain control and side effects. Participants are people in labor who receive epidural analgesia. They will receive routine clinical epidural care and complete brief, in-hospital questionnaires about pain and satisfaction. All care is provided by the clinical team and safety practices remain unchanged.
