Recliner for after c-section?

My husband and I are trying to figure out seating for our nursery. I'm expecting twins and my doctor thinks it's likely I will have a c-section. I've read great advice from some ladies on the bump about how recliners are easier to sleep in after surgery than beds. If you've had a c-section, do you agree with this?

We're torn between a la-z-boy gliding recliner or an upholstered glider from Buy Buy Baby. I like the look of the regular glider better, but wonder if the recliner would be more practical for our circumstances. Thanks for any advice you might have!
