what do you do to pass time In hospital?

Question

Due to complications. No baby yet to snuggle!

Answer

All the people saying sleep. Have you been in the hospital for an extended period of time and tried to sleep? I found it pretty much impossible. There was ALWAYS someone coming in at all hours to check on you. I was in the hospital with complications for four days and I was so exhausted. I hardly slept then when I got home I slept for 13 hours straight (minus a few pee breaks). I brought my laptop and tried to pass the time messing around online and watching tv.

Answer

I went to the hospital today and stayed for 4 hours. I slept loll. Those bed are amazing. Usually I will get on my phone but I doze off once they turn my lights off lol

Answer

I've been in the hospital for the past 6 weeks. Let me tell you.... It's so hard to pass the time. Try binge watching of Netflix (Narcos and Stranger Things were both good). Read some good books. Ask for wheelchair rides outside. I taught myself how to crochet on YouTube, so I made a baby blanket. Get some early Christmas shopping done even if it's just picking out gifts and not buying them yet. Plan Thanksgiving/Christmas meal ideas or look for Christmas stuff for baby. Take lots of naps. Just some things that have helped me. I'm starting to run out of ideas myself and I still have 3+ weeks left here. 😭

Answer

1) find some fun apps, possibly the problem solving ones, word searches, or item search. If you have a laptop computer with you, I've actually found playing kid games on it is super distracting (dress up is my favorite 😂)

2) Do you have someone with you? If so, look into playing some games that will get you two deep into talking. You can download a would you rather app, search riddles, etc. Also, look into willyoupressthebutton.com: it gives you scenarios with a catch to them.

3) if you're into reading, perfect time to either dive into a new story or reread a personal favorite

4) M U S I C. Not too loud but don't be afraid to jam out.

5) I believe Netflix still does the first month free, don't quote me on it, but if so, take advantage of that if you need to.

6) Do you have a hobby, like writing or art? Perfect time to have some fun!

Answer

Sleep!! You'll need it

Answer

Cards, books, movies.

Answer

Watch tv, sleep, go online, eat (my favorite), ask someone to bring activities for you to do like a notepad so you can draw, adult coloring books, crossword puzzles
