Why Is a La-Z-Boy Recliner Ideal for Pregnancy and Postpartum Comfort?

A La-Z-Boy Recliner is a practical comfort chair that can support mothers from pregnancy through the postpartum period. During pregnancy, its reclining back and supportive legrest allow the user to change positions, lean back and elevate her feet instead of remaining in one fixed posture. Selected recliner models also feature gentle rocking or gliding motion, adding another way to relax and stay comfortable as the body changes.

After childbirth, the padded back, seat and armrests provide a comfortable place for feeding, holding the baby and taking short breaks throughout the day. The gentle rocking or gliding motion available on selected models can also be especially useful when caring for a newborn. Research has found that infants exposed to rocking tend to settle more quickly than infants who are simply picked up without rocking. This slow, rhythmic movement allows parents to gently soothe and comfort the baby without having to continually walk or sway around the room.

When the baby is calm, the parent can stop the motion, recline and raise the legrest for additional comfort. With reclining comfort and additional rocking or gliding functions available on selected models, a La-Z-Boy Recliner can be a versatile choice for pregnancy, breastfeeding, bonding and soothing a newborn, while continuing to serve the family long after the maternity period.
