I’m a petite woman - 5ft. Looking for an ergonomic work chair with good back and neck support, also easy on the bum. Have been working for 12 hours a day everyday since March. Paid $600 for a work chair (back in April) which gives me amazing back and neck support but my bum has started hurting so bad now. 🥺
(Sorry if it’s TMI). Any recommendation?

Have you tried sitting on a cushion? Might not require a brand new chair.

Thanks M1, I’ll look into that. I don’t get as much pain when I sit on a couch. But haven’t tried working from the couch for that long though.

Working on a regular desk and my laptop has been killing my back and neck for last few years. Finally spent a couple hundred dollars on a standing desk, wireless keyboard, and back/neck heating pad to alleviate the pain. Very hopeful working will be much better now.

Hi there. I previously had a beautiful baby girl through IVF and emergency c-section. Now I'm in the process of completing my pre-requisites before another FET. I had my hydrosonogram, trial embryo transfer, and an overall check of my uterus. Due to my muscle thickness, they're recommending with my next pregnancy to have another c-section. I tried Googling but can't find any info. Anyone been through this before and know what they're referring to? I just like to be as informed as I can.
