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

I got c-section and poked on my left hand for the iv drip and also poked 4x on my back for the spinal anaesthesia. When I’m back to my ward I got another injection to prevent thrombosis. Not sure if you would go for normal or csect, personally I think csect is not so bad for people with low pain tolerance like me, although I was hoping to go with normal delivery.
