Parturients showing for elective cesarean section will be randomized into 3 groups by a computer generated randomization list. Each randomization slip will be put in a sealed envelope until patient enrollment. Patients will be divided into Group C: control group, given intrathecal bupivacaine 12.5 mg. Group M25: intrathecal bupivacaine 12.5mg + morphine 25 microgram. Group M50: intrathecal bupivacaine 12.5mg + morphine 50 microgram.
