A breastfeeding chair is designed to provide a comfortable place to feed your baby. Most recline into different positions to support your back, and some have a rocking feature to help soothe your baby. However, they can be expensive, and not all mums find them comfortable. Could a breastfeeding chair make life easier? Or will it just sit unused in your baby's nursery? Read what worked for BabyCentre mums. "I really love my nursing chair. It’s fantastic not just for breastfeeding but for feeding in general and comforting a baby. I didn't get it until my son was two months old. My only regret is not having it sooner. He associates it with his quiet, cuddly time and it calms and settles him as part of his bedtime routine. I would definitely recommend one." "I think it’s the comfiest chair in the world! I slept in it at end of my pregnancy as I couldn't get comfortable in bed and it really helps with backache too.
I used it for all feeds at first because I had a caesarean and couldn't get comfortable on our sofa. I use it for bedtime and night feeds only. I think my baby knows the chair means bedtime." "We used my Gran's old rocking chair. However, in retrospect I would have bought a proper nursing chair. The rocker was difficult to get out of with a sleeping baby. If you have the room in your baby’s nursery, I would definitely get one. It was much easier to settle my little one in his room at night than on the sofa in a busy house.” "I didn’t have one for my first, but was given one for my second. I’ve never fed in it as the arms are too high and I can’t get my daughter into a comfortable feeding position. Instead I do most of my feeding in our recliner downstairs or lying down in bed during the night." "I didn't feel the need for one for either of mine. Night feeds were done in bed and day feeds wherever I was at the time. However, I did buy a nursing pillow second time round and wish I had had one all along."
"I used one for night feeds with my bottle fed baby. It’s important to be comfortable whether breastfeeding or bottle feeding. Now that my second baby shares a bedroom with her sister, I don’t want to disturb my sleeping tot. So, I feed my baby in bed and feel a lot less sleep deprived that way." "Breastfeeding chairs are completely unnecessary in my opinion and just another expense you can do without. Yes, comfort and position are really important, especially at first. But we managed by experimenting with different cushions and pillows that we already owned." "A chair in the nursery is invaluable. It doesn't have to be a proper breastfeeding chair. We bought a second-hand one from an auction site." "I’d recommend getting a chair, but it doesn't have to be one marketed specifically for breastfeeding. I used a comfortable reclining chair. It was a lot cheaper than the breastfeeding chairs I saw but it was perfect for feeding my baby in peace. I found the recline function very useful for comfort, but even that isn't a necessity.
Any comfortable chair will do, just add a cushion!" "When I was pregnant I spent ages researching whether to get a breastfeeding chair or not. In the end we got an armchair. It's much prettier than a breastfeeding chair and doesn't take up half as much room. We use it for story time now and I'm glad we didn't spend the extra money." "I already had a rocking chair and just put that in the baby's nursery. It was a nightmare to sit in at first as I tore badly and couldn't get out of it. However, since my little one started sleeping in the nursery I’ve used it every night. It gently bounces and when I don't need it any more I plan to put it back in our living room." "We have a nice low and wide armchair which I sit cross-legged in with a feeding cushion on my lap. I used to sit up in bed or feed lying down but I always woke my other half up when I sat up to put the cushions into position. I do think it's important to be able to adapt to feeding in different types of chair.

IKEA is great for its affordable options and modern style, but sometimes you want something with a bit more personality and color for decorating your nursery. Our very own Brit rocked the DIY nursery for her little guy with lots of creative and colorful touches, and you can too.
Whether you want a colorful changing table or some more interesting options for displaying those teeny tiny shoes, IKEA hacks are the solution for your dream nursery. 1. Shelf Storage: IKEA shelving is the perfect place to hang all of those tiny, adorable baby clothes and it helps create a space to store toys, books and photos. 2. Wall of Dots: Make a colorful grid of polka dots intermingled with hangers for coats, hats and backpacks. 3. Gray and Pink: Convert an IKEA dresser into a stylish changing table. The open shelving is a great way to display favorite books and toys and keep them still within reach of little arms. (via Made By Girl) 4. Nursery Wardrobe Shelf: Starting with an IKEA wall shelf, just screw a rail to the bottom for a super easy but clever hack. Books and decor go up top, and clothing on the bottom for a piece that does double duty. 5. Wallpaper Dollhouse: Turn a bookcase into an adorable little dollhouse by just using a wallpaper cutout or some paint to make the outline of a house.
6. Bar Cart: Keep that changing table organized by turning the classic IKEA bar cart into a diaper caddy. You can also paint it in whatever color you want to fit into your nursery decor. (via Style Me Pretty) 7. Vertical Bookshelf: If there isn’t room for a bookshelf, hang magazine racks on the wall for book storage. This vertical book shelf also doubles as wall art, because kids’ books have the prettiest covers. (via Joy Ever After) 8. Golden Wardrobe: Embrace the openness of a closet without doors by putting up stickers or wall art and using open shelving and baskets to keep things organized. 9. Changing Table: Play with painted patterns and colors on a simple wooden dresser for a changing table that really reflects your nursery’s personality. 10. Modern Accents: We love a project that can be completed in an afternoon. Painting these geometric shades in bold colors is a fantastic way to update a plain old dresser. (via Buy Modern Baby) 11. Turn It on Its Side: Can you spot the hack in this colorful circus nursery?
For the window seat they used an IKEA bookshelf, added some legs and made a cushion for the top. They also used bin containers and painted circus numbers with stencils. 12. Get a Handle: Just the simple act of replacing the knobs with leather pulls on this dresser/changing table gives the whole nursery a fresh new look. 13. Wooden Play Gym: Hack this wooden play set with a much more grown-up color palette that won’t clash with your living room decor. 14. Contrasting Dresser: Rather than painting the whole dresser, just paint the drawers an accent color and replace the knobs with gold ones for a feminine, vintage look. 15. Train Track: A little glue and some foam can take a plain wooden train track from “meh” to ah-maz-ing. (via Kickcan and Conkers) 16. Green Accents: A basic Molger painted bright green is a fun way to store all those stuffed animals where little ones can easily access (and put away!) all their favorite toys.
