Hi Jenna
I really hope I don't piss anyone off here but here it goes.
I would definitely hook up with a lactation consultant at the hospital where you plan to deliver and get the "all clear" from your doctors. Also find a pediatrician who supports breastfeeding, they can be excellent resources as well.
However, I would be very careful with utilizing the La leche League. Some of their information is very good and they have helped many women succesfully breastfeed but they tend to be rather militant in their approach and some of their info is not based in the clinical realities. I learned this the hard way with my twins and was quite gung ho La Leche League prior to that with my first two kids.
PM me if you want to chat and I'll give you my e-mail.
Best of Luck,
Martha
