    I got mine from QS (now store twentyone) as they were reduced, and I got 5 pairs for £1.25!

    They do often have good sales in there when they change season, ie the summer stuff goes on sale in june/july when they get the winter gear in :o

    I bought an unused one from Ebay for £38 - it's an Elle Tens one.

    No idea if it's any good or not - it's looks the business though!! ;)

    I've been looking at those too. They do look impressive. I've been watching them on eBay and all seem to go for £35-40. Hmmm. The problem with hire ones is they're usually only sent to you at 37 weeks. Think I want to be prepared before then.


    Re pants: I have the black ones from matalan 5 pairs for £2 or 3. Theyre really sexy!

    Yeah, I didn't want to be worrying about sending it back afterwards which is why I didn't go down the hire route. This way I can resell it on Ebay when I get a spare moment and hopefully the net cost will be minimal. Very :money:

    You can use tens for things like back ache and period pain so need to sell if you think it will be useful :)

  • Congrats Apricot! I want my little girl now!!! Can't believe baby came on due date!! Lucky lucky lady!!!
    Abby - hope things are moving for you after the sweep....I'm booked in for one next tuesday if I'm still here, so it's good to know it's not too awful!

    I thought I was in labour on Wednesday morning, pains in my lower back getting stronger every 7 minutes with bump getting hard....but then I let out a little trump and they stopped! LOL!! I have had trapped wind pain before and I am telling you that wasn't it!!! I guess it was BH - the one and only time I have had them in this pregnancy!! So this morning, now being one day overdue I have eaten pineapple, drank RLT, bounced on the gym ball and I had reflexology yesterday too.......surely one of them has to work!! I've also put on nice pants today in the hope that I tempt fate and waters go in them!!!

    Quick question re: Plug / Show.....Does everyone get a show or the snot type mucus when their plug goes?

    I got my big pants from Primark - prob same as Sequeena, they are HUGE!!! But they are so comfy!!! Although I had to buy the size 3 bigger than normal just to make sure that they fit!!!
    :heart2: Mummy to one gorgeous little girl :heart2:

    Hi,

    I am on the 12-24 week thread at the moment, but was wondering if I could be added to the list here too as I have been lurking.

    EDD = 20th December 2011 However Consultant has said they will be here by 23rd November 2011 so not sure what date is best. Expecting 2 little boys.

    Congratulations Apricot and all!

    Congratulations Apricot :D She is a beauty!

    I bought "shorts" from Matalan 5 for about £3. They werent suitable for after a c-section though so I had my mum get me some granny pants :D lol 4 for £3 at Peacocks I think they were. I had some maternity pants but never used them and theyre still sitting in my bag lol.

    Apricot, your little miss is gorgeous! :)

    I managed to get a very good nights sleep last night (didn't wake up until 9.30!!) and am feeling a bit better today. Haven't been sick at all, although have felt nauseous all day.

    Good luck to all the boldies :) xxx
