Summary

This study will follow people having a planned cesarean birth with a spinal or combined spinal-epidural anesthetic. The investigators will ask what kinds of sensations participants feel during the operation, how often these happen, and whether any of the sensations feel as unacceptable or too uncomfortable.

Participants will be asked a few short questions at six set times during the surgery. Participants will also complete short questionnaires before surgery and again after birth (up to 6 months) to help us understand mood, stress, and overall wellbeing.
