The TENS Machine

TENS is a form of pain relief for childbirth. I don't really know how it works, although I'm sure Casso can fill in anybody who wants to know. Anyway, this is what the machine looks like:

Hi guys I had a dream you had the baby on Thursday night ? Doesn't seem you did....what's goin on ?? My mum's tens machine freaked Judie out so Dianne and I got lots of use out of it the night she went into labor. It does wonders for a mildly aching back...but as far as for labor pains ...well....fingers crossed shall we say ! Good luck I feel Harriet approaching xx miss you guys, come home to the east coast soon please.

hey lis!

nah they tell you that the tens machine is only for the milder contractions of early labour, so i'm under no illusions as to its strength!

i *wish* that she's come out on thursday night! my OB doesn't like to let you go more than 7d over your EDD so no matter what it looks like, in 14d at the latest there'll be something happening.i don't think jimbo's big problem will be the vocals, i think it'll be the scratching/biting/physical violence he receives (you know, just to even up the score).
