Hi mommies , I have gotten Depo shot in my arm for the very first time today and now my arm hurts like hell it has been…

The arm will probably hurt more... Depends if your hip is more fatty then your arm... Less fat it'll probably hurt more

@laywells, they dont ask to make a muscle but sometimes arm tenses up which is why it would hurt

@reevesh15, yes the did switch sides I was due for my left hip so she did my left arm because of what I was wearing

@ssbx3, no I didn’t make a muscle , she didn’t tell me to but I had on a dress and stockings so she did it on my arm to avoid me having to undress I regret it . I usually have it in my hip area

If it hurts did you make a muscle?? It’s probably just very sore. My arm is like that for like a a day or 2 after I get the shot on my arm. And they’re supposed to alternate when you go back to get it but don’t really have too. I use to be in pain when I got the shot I couldn’t move my arm and such because I made a muscle. But it usually happens depending on how fast they do the shot.

I thought depo goes in your lower back upper butt area? That's where they were doing mine... Mine use to hurt bad for a day and I was sore for a week or so... Not sure. They should switch sides every time you get the shot.

@parismommmy, about how long should I wait you think
