I had a caesar and 4 days later a appendix operation. i would like to know if in anyway it affects breast feeding ?

Slower: Generally breast feeding is slower to establish and may take more patience but in the end you have the same result. Pain and medications used for pain are likely the main reason. Breast feeding is directly a result of the baby being able to suck to help produce the milk. All the best. It is the best nutrition for your baby.
