Feeding log suggestions

Just that really I'm due our first baby in just over a week and have been looking at feeding logs. I'd like to write down which breast and how long as well as nappies and sleep. Does anyone have any recommendations of good ones? Templates to print or a book
Thank you

Just to note I didn't use the logs to control / limit / force feeds - it just helped keep me sane. A couple of times the baby slept for a relatively long time and midwife encouraged me to wake or dream feed in these scenarios. However being a tired new mum sometimes two hours felt like five minutes. Keeping a log on feeding also helped establish hay DD had a tongue tie (midwives were keen to dismiss this) and actually she was on the breast for a long time because she was struggling to take a full feed. Also as my milk came in my boobs were full and hard constantly so it did help to track the last breast as I couldn't tell my feel alone.
