Have my first fill on May 10th and I'm just wondering if it's going to hurt like hell?

My husband has to work so I will have my 4 year old and 17 month old with me and I don't wanna scare them...

I don't say this to scare u but because I think u really want to know. My first fill was horrible. Took ages for him to find the port' date=' and he dug and dug and dug. I started by laying down then stood up and when I started blacking out laid down again. He stuck me around nine times! When he finally found it I took a pic which I now always show him. Maybe most ppl have it easy and I hope u do too but some ppl do not and I hate the idea of someone telling u it's gonna be a breeze when u have ur babies in there. Maybe it will be super easy and stress free. Also I feel like crap most of the day after. Again, most ppl don't but some of us do. I'm sorry if I scared u but I wanted u to be prepared just in case![/quote']

Thank you for your honesty. My worst fear is that they poke me and I scream and scare the kids.

Mine uses lidocaine and the needle she uses is soooo big and long! More comfortable knowing it's numb if she's gonna be poking around looking for it!!!

They used ladicane on me as well. About four shots. My hubby went with. he was lookin a little green by the end of it hehe. They do get easier and easier on the plus side. I wish I lived close to u. I'd sit in the lobby with the little ones.

I don't find they do but some people do. For me it's a minor needle stick; I don't use any numbing creams or anything. They've never had a problem finding the port either. This last time I felt the sting of the needle but sometimes I don't even notice that.

Oh, and I would definitely suggest not leaving the office until you're able to drink some Water & can make sure it will go down. That's standard at my office but I don't think everyone does that.
