I was admitted into the hospital around the same time and was there until delivery!
I had some very generous people put a package together for me, It included:

Books
Magazines
Snacks
Word Searches/Crosswords
Body Lotions

I had my lap top with me and was able to watch movies on it as well as TV shows that I liked.

If she has a laptop-how about a 6 month Netflix subscription? I am not sure what you want to spend, but this way she can stream unlimited amounts of movies to her laptop. Once she gives birth, the movies are great when you are stuck on a couch all day feeding NB babies!

Books are another good idea

Nice pj set w/ robe. Cotton.
Funny book to pass time.
Gift card for take out near hospital.
Cheap but nice pillow cases/ sheets. Target or Ikea.
Scrap book/ baby book supplies.
Lots healthy snacks & drinks.
Nice chocolates.
Ear plugs/sleep mask.
Slippers.
