Should I purchase more pads for my tens machine?

It came with the standard four. Just worried that as I'm a sweaty Betty, the pads will need replacing after a while?

I think they'll be fine.

I wore a TENS for three days in my first labour (don't ask), taking it on and off to get in and out of baths etc. The pads lasted two days. I feel I well and truly tested them! I only got one set for the next labour.

You really only need one set. They are very sticky, and will cope with whatever you throw at them (including sweat!)

Taking mine off was actually quite sore because they were so sticky!! They're pretty solidly on there once they're stuck. :)
