We’re the same heights and we got a chair from Room and Board with a gliding ottoman. It’s ok, but my husband can’t lay his head back.

What we really used a lot for both kids was a futon couch. I had it in each kids’s Room until I weaned them close to age 2. I would nurse on the futon - but also had a place to sleep when the baby just wanted me close. Get one with an arm rest. Also to be clear - baby sleeps in crib, you can lay down on the futon. Never cosleep with a baby on a couch or futon.

hi! we had the same problem (i am 5'11" husband is 6'6") and we ended up going with the Detuiller Glider (ottoman included). It was a bit pricey in my mind but SO WORTH IT! it's so comfortable, and has a taller back than all the other ones we tried. It was around $500 from Buy Buy Baby, and we waited until we had a 20% off coupon to use (they give you so many if you just give them an email)

We are the same height (husband is actually a little taller) and got a glider/recliner we love from Pottery Barn kids. It was expensive but like you, we had trouble finding options that worked. I can’t remember the name of it though but I can remember our second choice was the wingback rocker.

My DH and I are the same height as you, so I completely understand the request. While not the fanciest chair, we went with the IKEA Poang. First, it's cheap. Second, great height so you can rest your head back. I bought the ottoman too, so it could be a little comfier for late nights. It's a little deep, so a bit harder to always get up -- harder for grandparents than for me. And the cover is washable and replaceable which is nice after all the spit up that happens.

Hi,

I am looking for a nursery chair that has a tall enough back so that my head - and ideally my husband's - is supported. I am 5'9" and he is 6'2". Although I prefer a rocker, it seems like almost all styles of nursery chairs have short backs, and I really just need it to be comfortable. Where can I find one?

Thank you!
