Why do the injections hurt SO badly?!

Nope. I was the same. I had to have them during my last 2 pregnancies as well. Then 6 weeks after. I felt like a pin cushion

I had a little icepack to numb the area and it definitely helped!

They’re like beestings!!!! I used to hold an ice cube for like 30 secs to numb before injecting, defo helped x

Not the only one, I hated them 😅 my partner injected them for me because I just don't think I could do it myself. The first midwife to inject them into me as well told me they don't really hurt because of the nerves being further due to pregnancy - absolutely lies 😂 I found it helpful to count down until the last one. Also if the liquid was injected really quickly I found it hurt more and was better if it was done a bit slower

If u mean the fragmin they are killer! Worse in my thighs im covered in bruises and blood spots! Plus like lumps where I’ve done it?

My husband pinched the area and held it pinched the entire time even as you remove it and that helped me a lot! Barely felt it doing it that way😊
