    Breast feeding/ settling chair

    We are looking to buy a chair that can be used for breast feeding, settling bubs, Sunday arvo snoozes and so on. So not really a "nursing chair" as such but one that can also be used as one. We haven't started seriously looking yet, so I'm looking for recommendations if anyone has purchased something similar........ Think rocker/recliner with low arms and a straight back.
    Thanks in advance.

    What's your budget? I was in LaZboy a few weeks ago and Miss A needed a feed so I gave a couple of their recliners a test drive. there was a rocker recliner there that I would have loved that was about $1800 and it would look great in the lounge so not just a baby limited life ITMS

    That wasn't my budget so I have a big comfy armchair that obviously neither reclines nor rocks but its really comfy and we manage sleeps in there no problem at all!

    I'm wanting to buy a glider chair and probably will in the next few weeks. I found a white one with pink cushioning lol

    Thanks- not sure what our budget is but we did want something to last quite a few years, so I'm guessing we'll have to pay for it. ( just didn't think we would need to pay $1800 for it, lol) I'll check out the lazy boy website. Thanks again.

    I have a "Euro Venice Glider and Ottoman" its a cream/beige leather look (fake, but really good quality ) its from a baby shop and was about $500. Super comfy for feeding/reclining and wouldn't look out of place in a lounge/living room. One of my favorite purchases and the most used. I sat on a lot of different chairs and lots weren't comfortable or didn't suit my height etc

    I wish I could convince DH to buy a Lazboy. I'm using our old second hand couch and it's killing my back.
