cheapest TENS machine purchase / hire

[milkmummy1]

Hi everyone
I have 3 weeks to go and baby has now turned head down from breech position so really hoping for a natural birth this time!

Can anyone reccommend somewhere to buy or hire tens machine? where is the cheapest? Boots wanted about £50 and that was just for hire.

I would try E-bay, am planning on selling mine on there when friend returns it - I have seen them going for under £20

I was going to say Ebay too - I bought a new one for DD#1 birth, have loaned it to a couple of friends in between and plan to use it again for baby #3 so I have had good value from it. It is still in great condition too so I will probably sell it on afterwards. There are usually some on ebay second hand, but do make sure you are getting a proper maternity tens as they are not all the same thing. I think maternity ones all have a 4 pad system, but please don't quote me on that. Sure if you google it you will find the info you need.
