Kindle for reading during breastfeeding ?

[eepie]

I am wondering whether it's worth getting a Kindle as I have been reading more during my pregnancy but don't always find it comfortable to hold books in certain positions for long periods of time - but the other main reason is that I thought it might be good for when breastfeeding as I don't really watch lots of TV and am not a box-set sort of person (maybe I'll grow to be!) -- BUT will I even be able to concentrate on reading whilst breastfeeding or will I be in a different kind of zone? I'm not sure but I've heard women say they go into a kind of super relaxed state during breastfeeding sometimes or if you're already sleep deprived maybe concentrating on reading is a bit much/bound to make you drop off !

thanks in advance :)

Definitely do it - I have both a kindle (the basic 'books only' type) and an iPad mini, but used the kindle loads more than the iPad when BFing as you only need one hand and can press the button to turn the page with your left or right hand. It also has survived being dropped plenty of times - the iPad seems more breakable. I'm now expecting DC2 and will be investing in the cover that has a little light in it ready for those long nights of cluster feeding.
