When I went in for my laparoscopy they blew the one in my arm... Then my doctor really got into the veins in my hand... So that is where they put my IV... Hurt so bad could barely move my hand..

me too girl I'm so nervous when it comes to needles but my mom always tells me that will be the least you will be worried about when your going through contractions and labor lol

ugh. Lol I'm nervous about labor too but I have such anxiety when it comes to needles

not crazy at all. lol. I've had 3 and I'm still nervous about having another one. they scare me. lol

Ask them to put it in the top of your arm, right above your wrist. They USALLY do the hand, which is more annoying when you move it. It's so much better in the arm than the top of the hand. And just think to yourself, your going to push a baby out, that needle is nothing compared to what you will be doing hahah I hate needles myself, and that's what I told myself.
