Recliner chair for recovery

I had two C-sections & I never felt like I needed a recliner. I used all my pillows in bed or my pregnancy pillow to get comfy.

For my first i was fine with no pain meds....the second one I also had a tube removal & needed meds for a week. So idk if I just have a high pain tolerance or what lol

I had a c section in May. I didn't have a recliner but yes that would definitely help you trying to get out of bed. I bought mine 3 weeks after because it also helps with the long nights head.


I would say buy it and you will not only use it for you the first week but later with your little one.

I felt most comfortable laying down so my husband just helped me sit up every time I got up. I was in the bed for a majority of the time. I had a recliner chair and didn’t use it much

I stayed in my recliner for 3 weeks after my C-section due to my bed being higher than normal and I was more comfortable in my chair over the bed anyway it’s not a necessity but if you are already buying a rocking chair for your little one’s room I would buy a rocking chair recliner so you can have it for both purposes.

I mean I’d get a recliner and rocking chair combined. I only had a rocking chair and I wish I had a recliner. It would have helped when I needed to just lean back but also when contact napping I could also just sleep while I was holding baby as well or like lean my head back and rest my legs instead of just sitting straight up for multiple hours

I used lots of pillows to sleep but if I had an actual recliner i probably would have slept there too
