I used to dislike needles but after having a pulmonary embolism in 2006 I had to give myself shots twice a day in my own stomach for 2 years! You get over that fear fast when you are holding the damn injectible. That being said, my son isn't a huge fan and I have learned that if I pinch his other leg or make chicken sounds to distract him, he doesn't hear it. I had to get blood drawn this past monday - 6 HUGE vials and was definitely a bit dizzy after, but it is what it is.
Are you facing getting shots of giving blood? I think it feels different...
