Just a word of warning, be VERY careful with applying thumb pressure. I used to apply quite a lot of thumb pressure when first playing barre chords, and I ended up with a pretty bad inflammation in the joint, took months to heal properly.
Just use as much pressure you can use and still remain comfortable and without tensing up. Don't worry if it won't sound clean at first, this will come eventually.
