Oh no! I am sorry to hear that Leeann! Poor Miss R. This doctor we have right now is so good. Unbelievably he has the magic touch. I didn’t even feel my flu shot. At all.

Oh yes I kind of forgot that one. She does some of her own deep breathing too. That’s very useful. Thanks for the reminder.

Yes it is funny how they can be so different sometimes.

I am the opposite so it’s been interesting to see this Y out with my dd. Live and learn. I did not want this to go on forever. There are so many situations- even travel needles! Needles are a very big issue for many people!

Hopefully they don’t even balk at them. We were desperate. I would have bought her anything. It did t matter. The worry was too big.

Miss R had a shot that wasn’t necessarily done the best on her last round of boosters! Made getting stitches hard when she got hurt at school & she won’t even stay in the room while someone else gets a needle.

We had to try deep breathing and squeezing my hand for him to get through it. I like the idea of a comfort item; my preschooler has one she takes everywhere.

Distraction always worked with my kids, luckily. The last time they got needles, they were looking at a bowl of suckers and didn’t even realize they had gotten one. Funny how kids are sometimes!

Even now I have to look away as soon as I know the doctor or nurse is reaching for a needle.
