I'm just looking to buy one this week, but wondered what your experiences were of the TENS machine and which one you used? And would you recommend it?

I bought a Boots one off EBay.... didn't get to use thought cos LO came 6 weeks early via the sun roof. :rotfl:

sorry - that wasn't much help was it!

You know you can hire them rather than buy as well though - about £25 for 6weeks hire.
 
I got the Elle TENS machine and I loved it. You could adjust the power (I don't think that's the word I'm looking for :think: ) to the top pads separate to the ones for the lower back. I couldn't have the upper pads on anything higher than the lowest setting but preferred the lower pads on a higher setting.

I was in labour for 55 hours and I was really glad I had the TENS. I had a bath after 35 hours of labour and OH was having a nap so I didn't want to wake him(he'd been up a lot of the night with me, getting sleep for 5 mins at a go). The pain was getting really unbearable and I thought I should go to hospital but once he was awake and the TENS was back on I could cope much better and lasted another 5 hours before going in to hospital - at 6cm :D
