Misty wrote about this, and I was wondering if anyone else saw the NYT
article on epidurals and casareans.
Apparently there are some studies that show that epidurals increase the
rate of C-Sec. Now, new studies show that they do not. No mention at all
was made connecting breaastfeeding difficulties with epidurals. In fact,
the tone of the article was-go for it! Epidurals are great!
This was in the Science Times, Oct. 21. Our copy has been recycled except
for the article connecting cancer with second hand smoke...
