Low pain tolerance

Hey mummies! I have something weird/funny/may be stupid question to ask.. I actually have very low tolerance with needles. I hate injections. Esp drips! I know every mum in labour will be poke with the drip. I had that before and I cried till my mask got dirty and wet with my tears! Can’t handle that pain.. so is it a must to be poke on my hand?😭😭 please help

Yes, definitely a must! You will be poked in the delivery suite too and the IV plug will stay on your hand or arm (depends where they can find a suitable vein) until you got discharged home. Look away when they're about to insert the needle and talk to your spouse, make your mind busy so you will not feel the pain. Works for me everytime! Furthermore, my veins are very hard to find. Most times I will be poked 2-3 times (by the inexperience ones) before finding the right vein.
