No. I used to take staples out of people all the time. ( I'm a stay at home mom now) there is a special tool to take them out with, everyone always said it didn't hurt & how great it felt to have them out.
I hope you ladies are right! lol after the c section I had I'm nervous my epidural didn't take all the way due to scoliosis or that's what they told me. I was poked a total of 6 times or at least that's what I remember!
