Buy a TENS machine!

[localcrackpot]

Just taking a moment between contractions to suggest you buy/rent/steal a TENS machine. I thought I was going to throw up with the pain just now then I pressed + a few times and the boost button (this one's an Elle TENS, apparently) and thank God in heaven it all got better so fast. Tens=beauty, harmony, paradise.

I didn't get to use mine last time as I was induced. Might think about hiring one again this time.

Good luck with labour!!

Happy Labour!!! I also highly recommend TENS, got me to 10cms with DC3, need to put them on early to get the most benefit I was advised.

Excuse my stupidity but how exactly does a TENS machine work. I'd love to use one as they sound good (no needles!!).

Also which would be the best one in your opinion?

Thankyou

I had that one, was great until I had g&a and was sick everywhere and couldn't cope with the sensation of tens. Was great until then as was having 'back labour' with OP baby.
Good Luck, how exciting meeting your baby soon! Or are you snuggling already?

My tens was a load of crap. I wish I'd never bothered TBH.
