One in four babies in England delivered by caesarean section, NHS data shows Increase due to a growing number of complex births caused by rising obesity rates and women having children later in life

@theguardian.com please fix this inaccurate headline ASAP: 25pc of all births were *planned* sections. The total proportion of sections (including planned and unplanned) is closer to 40pc. The header and the article are both misleading.
