I've only just recently learned of that condition. It was on the Embarrassing Bodies show on channel 9. A young mum had it and had the same concerns you've raised. She had some good coping mechanisms in place but ended up having an operation to help stop the excess sweating. The operation made a massive difference. They may have a link to the story on their website if you wanted to have a look for ideas.
My SIL has had the operation too but a while before she had kids. It's been successful for her too.
Sorry I don't have any better advice. I have no doubt though you will certainly be able to bond beautifully with your baby. Get yourself a good sling and wear bubba close to you when you're unable to offer lots of cuddles. A good breast feeding pillow should help you to feed without cradling your LO if need be so you can still bond lots during a feed as you're LO will have the breast contact. Eye contact is also an incredible way to bond.
