I did not feel doped up at all after my c-section, maybe just the hour after. This was my first baby but we were successful in breastfeeding, and still going strong EBF 8months! I found that the football hold was the ONLY way I could feed her, because it kept her off my incision, however she was my first and I didn't know what I was doing so maybe next time I would be able to try different ways to feed. I really don't think you need to worry about how it will affect your bfing, especially since after 5 babies you're probably quite the expert

Good luck!
