Nursing Chairs
With your new arrival, you'll be spending quite a few hours nursing whether in your own room or nursery, so it's essential that you have a comfortable chair to sit in. Of course, any comfortable chair could be used, but a specially designed nursing chair will be engineered to provide a smooth rocking or gliding motion.
This has two real benefits: it will help to soothe your child, helping him to relax back to sleep after a feed. Just as important, the movement means that your posture is constantly being changed without effort, helping to prefent strains, cramps, and muscle stiffness by sitting in the same position too often and for too long.
Most nursing chairs come with a matching stool, also with the rocking mechanism, to provide a completely comfortable and relaxing way of nursing.
Prices start at around the £100 mark, and range upwards to some quite expensive models. It may seem a lot to pay, but you'll be thankful for it at the 3am feeds, and of course there's nothing to stop you using the chair for years in the future as simply a comfortable chair in any room of your home.
