today begins cesarean awareness month. the cesarean rate for the u.s. is 31.1% despite the world health organization's recommended rate is between 5 and 10%. a study done by researchers althabe and belizan in 2006 shows that when rates rise above 15% it seems to do more harm than good.
if you or anyone you know has had a c-section or is being threatened with one visit the ICAN website today to receive information on how to bring this number down,.
