Office Chairs — Expert Answer
What should a pregnant person look for in an office chair?
Pregnancy ergonomics is a specialized seating application at OfficeFurniture2go.com. We recommend chairs with: positive seat tilt (2–5 degrees forward to maintain lumbar curve), height-adjustable lumbar support, wide armrests with adjustable width, a waterfall seat edge, and smooth pneumatic height adjustment for easy positioning changes. OSHA ergonomic guidelines for prenatal workers recommend hourly position changes — a fully adjustable chair is particularly important. We recommend discussing specific ergonomic accommodations with an occupational health professional. Call 1-800-460-0858.
