As the title states really, I'm booked to have c-section tomorrow due to complications in last labour. However I've heard that having a c-section at 39 weeks means your body isn't naturally as prepared so there may be a delay with milk coming in.
I really want to BF, I couldn't with my first and it had a huge impact on me. (It was over 10 years ago and it still upsets me).
Do any of you know of any way I could give my milk/hormones a shove along?
Midwife has basically told me to stop worrying but she has also admitted there could be a delay.
Have any of you had to give bottle and then successfully swapped to boob? Thanks.
