Book for hospital?

[laura20]

I'm currently 6 months pregnant and will pack my hospital bag soon( I know it's a bit early but I'm too excited) Does anyone know a really good book I could buy to take with me. I'm not a real big reader but would like something to occupy my mind as I've read it can be difficult to sleep even when you are exhausted after birth.

The last book I read was 50 shades of grey lol. Doesn't need to be similar just a really good read!

First of all, congratulations. I packed my bag early the first time too, and DD was two weeks' late :o

To be very honest I took a book with me both times and never even opened it. I managed to flick through a few pages of a magazine but couldn't concentrate in hospital. It's noisy on the ward - lots of babies crying, constant interruptions even during the night. And I seemed to be up and down changing nappies, and feeding every few minutes (or so it seemed :o) And no you probably won't get to sleep much. I didn't sleep until I got home, completely exhausted.

Thanks for advise, I may just take some magazines in then no doubt they will be baby magazines lol.

Magazines would be better I think, very hard to concentrate after giving birth ime!
