Maternity ward

What are you moms planning to take with you to ease your mind while at the maternity ward, I know the pain will be unbearable in such a way that you might not be able to even read a magazine, I'll be admited around 12am to be induced and can stay there for over 6hours before the pain starts. Please help I don't wanna get bored while there.

My kindle goes everywhere with me. As well as my iPod, great for waiting rooms and just general waiting x

I'd bring my phone and play games but I'm not getting induced so I'll just be in regular agony and occupied with vomiting and trying not to murder my sweet husband. I am bringing an essential oil blend of lavender and geranium to help calm me. I heard trashy tabloids are fun to read while you're bored and waiting.  Maybe a small sewing item if you sew. Or how about an ipad and binge watch something on Netflix?
