Breastfeeding- Yay or Nay?

Our next 'decision' is "to breastfeed or not". I don't know a darn thing about it.  I'm a planner, I need to have things planned well in advance so that when the time comes, I already know what's going to happen.

We've all heard it a million times that breast is best, and it's pretty much rammed down your throat when you are pregnant. I didn't breastfeed Tyler and Kallie for a few reasons- some of them selfish, some of them not. With Tyler I had planned to formula feed from the beginning. I had an awful pregnancy and delivery was equally as awful. I don't remember much from his hospital stay so me being able to breastfeed from the get go was not an option. I was on heavy duty pain meds, I was throwing up all over, and I was so out of it. My milk never came in anyway so I considered that a blessing- one less bit of pain to deal with. With Kallie, I was a single parent when she was born and I didn't have the time or patience to learn to breastfeed while still trying to chase a 2 year old around. It would have been more of a stress for me and probably her, than what I felt was worth it. This time might be different. I still have a few hang ups to work through. I've made a list of the pros and cons for us (this will not apply to all families)-if anyone has any words of encouragement or suggestions, I'd be glad to hear them.

Pros:

• It's FREE! I'm not going to be getting paid for the 12 weeks that I am on maternity leave, so not having to buy formula would be a blessing. 
• It's healthy. Everyone knows breastmilk supplies baby with immunity and the perfect balance of nourishment.

Cons:

• Pain! I don't do well with pain and between engrogement, horror stories of plugged ducts, etc. I'm petrified. 
• Not having any help with feedings. After a c-section the last thing I typically feel like doing is struggling with something, and it's going to fall all on me to feed the little guy. Can you even pump the colostrum the first few days to give Chop the chance to help out while I'm recovering? And if I do pump, I'll end up with the next con on my list.
• Nipple confusion. I know that I won't make it without pumping the first few weeks- I know I'm going to need help with late night feedings. And if I give him a bottle during those weeks, I'm going to end up having to continue with a bottle forever, right?
• My diet isn't always what it should be. A least 2 nights a week I end up with a bowl of cereal because what I've made for dinner isn't appealing to me. If I'm not eating properly it will decrease my supply as well as not provide nourishment that baby needs. I'm also a super picky eater which compounds the issue.
• This one isn't really MY issue, it's more an issue of finding someone who will comply. Most daycares around here prefer to give formula because it doesn't need to be stored in a fridge. I do have to go back to work at 12 weeks so I'm going to need to pump if we are to continue with breastfeeding.

I've been reading all kinds of things on the internet to try to prepare myself for this. Things like this are why I think many first time Mom's don't even attempt to breastfeed because the whole thing seems very stressful.
