Jane Morton has some nice teaching scripts for babies at risk (including cesarean-born) at http://newborns.stanford.edu/Breastfeeding/PMGs.html There are lots of helpful videos (including hand expression) and good info there so if you haven't visited the site before, be sure to noodle around. I know the sound of "scripts" sounds SO restrictive. But we use them for other things here - for example, before we leave a room we say, "Do you need anything else? I have time." It makes me stop and take a deep breath and remember that it's true! And once you get used to the script you can get creative with the rest of the teaching.
