Worried about C-section recovery

I'm 36 weeks and for certain reasons I'm told that a C-section is the preferred option for me. I'm worried about the recovery process as it's a major surgery. And how it'll affect moving around and breast feeding and caring for baby etc. Anyone have any experience with C-sections? I know everyone's recovery process is different. But just trying to understand more so I can come to a more informed decision next week. Thanks in advance!
