The study will measure anxiety levels, pain scores, shivering, and how quickly women recover after delivery.

If you join this study, you'll be randomly assigned to either the education-plus-music group or the education-only group. You'll meet with a nurse one day before surgery to receive education about the procedure. If assigned to the music group, you'll wear headphones starting one hour before surgery, listening to personalized music throughout the procedure and for 30 minutes afterward. After surgery, you'll complete short surveys and answer questions about your anxiety and pain at several time points (6, 12, and 24 hours after delivery) to help researchers understand how the music affected your experience.
