Is anyone on Clexane/Inhixa injections?

I'm on these injections. I find doing it quickly is easier. Find a fleshy bit of skin and once needle is in just press the plunger fast otherwise it's sooo painful because it burns like crazy. My midwife suggested doing it this way and it's worked better for me
I would put an ice pack on the area for 5 min prior or a numbing cream I did this through my whole ivf cycles and I had to use these injections after being in hospital and they told me to do this x
Defo use ice to numb the area first and then if allowed use arnica for the bruises. x
Don’t pinch the flesh tightly. A light pinch is better. I had to do 10 days of these injections after my c-section. I would rest the meddle on the skin and push lightly. If it hurt I moved to a different spot. Once the needle passed through the skin it stopped hurting and then I would gently push it in. It’s horrible to do, but I found it a lot less painful doing it the way I described above.
I will try ice and less hard punching thankyou everyone!! Xx
I have no experience of this, but you got this mama! So sorry you’re going through this rough shit :(
