There’s no reason why you shouldn’t breastfeed after a c-section. But, the pain from your scar may make things a bit more difficult, so keep trying different positions until you are comfortable. Try to have someone around when you’re feeding, so you can get comfortable before you start, and then have the baby handed to you.
Lying on your side may be easier than sitting up. If you do sit up to feed, make sure you move the baby to the breast, not your breast to the baby. You would end up with back and shoulder ache. Use pillows to lift the baby up to the right level.
