Mama tens or Elle tens?

I am going to hire a TENS machine this time round. I've looked into buying one, but I'm not plannig on any future oregnancies, and I know that I will never get around to selling it on, so I'm opting for the hire option.

Any views on which one is best please?

I had the elle tens which was quite effective for me in early labour, although didn't touch it once things really got going (which i think is fairly standard really with tens machines). Can't comment on the mama one though, i would guess they're going to be similar, but perhaps someone else will come along soon whose used both so can give you a proper answer!

When are you due? I have bought a second hand mama tens my time, but I have another 5 weeks til due date so you might have had your baby by the time I get chance to report on it!

I hired the Elle TENS for my labour recently it was great, only needed that up until pushing then had G&A and TENS.

Sounds like the Elle tens would be a good bet then.

Lala - I am due in 3 weeks time. Good luck!
