weird question, but what do u sit on when you're on the computer?
My back and neck were killing yesterday cos i've been on here so much,and just wondered if it could be the chair, it's just a cheapo swivel chair that comes up to mid back height, wondered if i should get a full back chair, (a laptop would be heaven so i could sit on the couch but we can't afford one (laptop not couch).
just wondered :)

If im on ds's pc upstairs then im on a high stool that dp got from work-it has a really big seat bit so is high enough n safe enough for ds but I hate it n find it uncomfortable.

downstairs on our pc I just drag over one of the dinning room chairs.

YOu know what should is one of those big balls used during pregnancy. When I was pregnant I used it whn at the computer and even when doing the ironing. It was great! Sadly it burst and I haven't invested in a new one.

Failing that get yourself a willing partner to give you a nice neck & shoulder massage!

I wouldnt want one again if it burst, but when i was in labour I used one and it was great but I did keep thinking what if it burst, lol I must go and get dressed soon, wish I had one of those nice comfy swivel office leather chairs, then again I would probably live in it and sleep in it, lol:party05:

:bottomrev obviously :hysterica :hysterica sorry, I sit on a proper desk chair but still tend to lean to one side so back gets stiff after a while anyway. I now have to get up and walk round to stop myself from getting R.S.I in my wrist from playing games.:smiley-fa

I sit on an office type chair, but it kills my back, i need a chair that makes you sit up straight and cant find any.

back ache could be due to silly swivel chair or that fact that I've pulled a muscle from laughing so much. more worried about eyestrain!!
