Where can I get a TENS machine from quickly?

[preghead]

Hi there, I am due tomorow with my third. With first I used TENS and gas and air which worked well bit with the second I found the TENS didn't do anything and just annoyed me so just used Gas and Air.

However, I have just started remembering that the second birth was more painful than the first and now am having a last minute panic that maybe I should have one just in case! Where can you get them from quickly again? Boots?

Yep I hired mine from boots. IIRC I had to go to the photo section HTH

Tesco also have them (at least the ones with a pharmacy)

Oops, pressed post before I could say "Good Luck"

thanks and you could just pick them up at the shop rather than waiting for them to be sent out?

I think the standard process is to fill in a form to order one and then come back to collect. However I'm sure they had them in stock in my Tesco so you could "order" immediately IYSWIM.

Why not give them a call to see?

yes boots. good luck.

try your community midwifery team they often have them to hire and can get them to you straight away

they do next day delivery if you order before 2pm. i found their after sales support very helpful too.

Thanks all I went down to tesco and as you say they has them in stock so got one straight away. Now, what can I panic about next .....

I hired mine from Boots last week, £55 but you get £25 back on return.

I was able to take it away the same day. I had to go to the pharmacy department for it. Might be best to try a bigger store though, to make sure they're in stock.
Good luck !

Some local pharmacys might have them on the shelf, have you got a Lloyds near you?
