I hope it is ok to link to this ABA page: Breastfeeding after caesarean birth

Specifically this bit:
There is a perception that a mother's milk is slower to 'come in' after a caesarean. The 'switch on' of lactation after a baby is born is caused by the removal of the placenta, which in turn results in a change in the balance of hormones circulating in the blood. Studies have shown that some babies born by caesarean section take a little longer to regain their birth weight than other babies, but this is not significant after a few days, and is unlikely to have any long-term effects.
And this:
Not every caesarean mother can start breastfeeding immediately. You may have needed or asked for a general anaesthetic or your baby may need to be put in a humidicrib for a while to stabilise his condition. While early breastfeeding is helpful for baby and mother, there is one important thing you can do while waiting and that is to express your colostrum. Colostrum is like 'super' breastmilk and contains more concentrated protein and immunity factors than mature breastmilk. It acts as a natural laxative for the meconium, your baby's first bowel movement.

It is rare for newborn babies to require anything other than colostrum and breastmilk. This is especially important if you or your partner have any family history of allergy or food intolerance.
You could start expressing colostrum before the c-sec. Worth a try.
