We just got a recliner at home and honestly its the only thing that gives my kamar some relief these days. But i keep wondering if leaning back like that is ok for baby. Is it fine to sit in one for long?
Yes dear, you can definitely use it. Just make sure your back is well supported with a small pillow. It is actually quite comfortable when your tummy gets bigger.
I totally understand how exhausted your body must feel right now, mama. That recliner will give you some much-needed cozy rest. Just snuggle up with a warm blanket and let yourself relax, you are doing amazing!
It's completely fine to use one. Just buy a good ergonomic footrest or stool if your legs swell up. And don't sit in the same position for hours, keep moving around.
My MIL was a bit worried that I shouldn't sit in tilted positions, but honestly, it was the only place I got some back relief. I just put a soft cushion behind my lower back so my posture remained straight.
I asked my physiotherapist at the hospital about this. They said as long as the recliner supports your lumbar spine properly, it's absolutely fine. Do check with your hospital's rehab team if you feel any discomfort.
My gynac said sleeping or sitting in a recliner is safe, especially if you suffer from severe acid reflux. However, she warned not to lie flat on your back for too long after the second trimester. So keeping it at a slight angle is actually perfect.
Yaar, recliner is actually a lifesaver during pregnancy. When the acidity strikes at night, sleeping slightly upright on it helps so much. Just keep a footstool nearby so your legs are not hanging.
Haan na, pregnancy me backache itna hota hai ki comfort jahan mile wahi achha hai. Recliner is very comfortable, but just make sure standing up from it is easy and you don't strain your tummy.
Oh my god, the recliner was my absolute best friend because lying flat on bed was impossible with my massive belly! I literally slept on it during my third trimester. Just don't get stuck in it like a turtle, haha!
I had some severe lower back issues and pelvic pain, so my doctor told me to avoid deep soft chairs. If you have any sort of pain or complications, please ask your gynac before using it. Better to be cautious.
You can sit on it beta, but don't keep your legs dangling for too long as it can cause swelling. Try to keep your feet raised on a stool and put a warm compress on your back if it hurts.
