Cesarean and Breastfeeding...

I am 37 weeks pregnant and my daughter is breech. Yesterday my doctor attempted to turn her by ECV, but she wouldn't move. So, now we're looking at the prospect of a cesarean birth. I am coming to terms with this now. I am concerned about the immediate bonding that I will be missing out on. I would like to ask other moms who have had cesarean births - how soon after birth were you permitted to breastfeed? Further, were you able to have your baby placed on your chest directly after birth?
