hello, hope you don't mind me posting - not pg but have had one baby, 17mo ago - now a friend has told me she is worried that having an epidural will increase risk of having a c-section - 7/10 epidurals leading to c-sections she thinks.
I had an epidural, it was great, but have not heard of this level of "risk" of c-section following epidural. has anyone else heard this? I want to reassure her but am out of touch with all things birth-related.
thanks
