Summary

This study looks at whether warming the numbing medicine used in epidurals can lower the chance of fever during childbirth. Researchers will compare a warm (body temperature) solution to a room-temperature one in 424 women having vaginal deliveries. The goal is to see if a simple change in temperature can reduce fevers and improve comfort for both mother and baby.
