I'm considering hiring a TENS machine for my labour and wondered if people could share their experiences of it? This is my second (and last) child. In my labour with DD, all my pain was felt very low down near my pubic bone, no pain anywhere else, which is making me wonder, if I was to have the same experience again would it actually work for me, or is it better for people who feel labour in their back?
I had no pain relief at home last time and didn't particularly enjoy it and just wondered if this would help? Also with it being my second, does anyone know if they work on afterpains?
