My mam held my little boy for me but I was in the room. Not going to lie it was awful, but I was glad I was in the room for comfort because they aren't nice for the little ones. Xx

I didn't go in when my little boy had his first set of jabs, I couldn't, daddy took him in while I sat in the waiting room, I could still hear him screaming though and I burst into tears, my hubby came out to a blubbering wreck, 2nd time round I went in with my mother in law and managed to hold him, I still cried my eyes out and 3rd lot of jabs I took him in on my own and yes I cried again lol x

No it's not selfish. If your going to get worked up & cry before it's even happened it would probably be better someone else take him. You don't want to end up sharing your fear with your children. You can be there for when he comes out for lots of Mummy cuddles 😊
