When I was pregnant with my first I was most scared of BFing, even over labor! My husband and I were so sure I would hate it.
I had trouble at first, he wouldn't latch on, I had to use a nipple shield, it hurt so bad, I would nurse him every 1.5 hrs for an hour each time. I would be up crying at night, but for some odd reason I stuck it out, threw out the nipple shield and taught myself and my son how to BF. After 6 long weeks it was smooth sailing, soooooo easy. I never regretted it once, and I nursed my son to almost 14 months. I did pump the entire time to increase my supply.
You might not like it but I would try, you might surprise yourself!!!
