TinyMamiOf3kids 1,280 Posted April 12, 2013 I only took my cell phone & that was all. I was sleeping or walking most of the time so I didn't have that moment where I was bored lmbo 1 Cherry reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kraney 219 Posted April 12, 2013 I took my cell phone and iPad. I never got on my iPad at all. It was the same for me, I was either walking or sleeping.< /p> 1 Cherry reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
reinangel 78 Posted April 12, 2013 My laptop is too much of a beast(gaming laptop) to bring to the hospital for 1 or 2 days. So i will be bringing my tablet. good enough for what little bit i will hopefully be in bed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
La'Shaunda 3 Posted April 12, 2013 The first day I slept, the 2nd day I walked and slept. Really didnt have time to get on my Ipad or Kindle. Used phone to check Facebook status. 2 Cherry and nienie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BBdoodle 483 Posted April 12, 2013 I just had my cell phone, I was on a morphine pump so I hit that button all the time. By the second day all my waking moments were me walking around, then I would go back to bed hit the morphine and sleep. I personally did not have any use for the lap top, when I was not sleeping or walking I was just watching TV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't want to be bored in hospital.... do you think I will be sleeping much of the time? I don't think you'll need it. Take that time to rest or sleep. I wasn't up for that at all. 1 Cherry reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shannalee 65 Posted April 12, 2013 I'll probably have my tablet and phone but plan to sleep and rest as much as possible. I have been wondering if I will get bored but I have a feeling there will be no time for that. 1 Cherry reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have been wondering if I will get bored but I have a feeling there will be no time for that. I got bored, hence the iPad......I don't really watch TV, you can only walk so much, sipping Water doesn't take much thought....so my 2 BFFs amused me via text and Facebook while I was trapped in the hospital.
