All patients with a scheduled cesarean section surgery will be approached for enrollment during their pre-admission testing visit on the labor floor 2 days before the scheduled cesarean section, a visit that is standard procedure for this surgery. Once a patient is consented, she will be randomly assigned to one of the 2 arms of the study: the eligible women will be randomized to use of 2% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) cloths or placebo cloths (a fragrance free cleansing cloths) on the body the night before and the morning of their scheduled procedure. Participants will be blinded to the arm in which they have been assigned.
