Advice from Belly shooters

Ok, need some help here, legs are burnt out from 42 shots in 25 weeks. Where in the belly can the shot be taken? From what it looks like in the directions and the diagram, it looks like you inject just under the ribs is this right? Ouch! Or can it be injected into the fatty tissue of the belly just above the waste line.

Thanks jasper

Left right --- left right ---

Oh --- uhmmm below the belly button to the left or right...

Grip a firm pinch of belly in fingers ---- poke -- push and voila!

Seems like less bruising - less problems --- and less pain for me.

Shot of B12 in the hind end in the "fluffy" area at hips... LMAO!

Hugs Jasper -- have fun.

Yanno --- a vibrating man would be a definite bonus. LMAO!

I do belly shot a week of peg and one of neup every two weeks.

I alternate sides as much as possible.

On the weeks I do both peg and neup, i try to do one on the left, the other on the right.

I also give myself allergy injections, one in each arm, once a month.

the belly shots feel the same as the arm shots.  Just besure to get  a handful of jelly and squeeze between thumb and fingers - that usually helps the syring go in quicker.

The only difference between the arm and the belly shots is after 36 weeks i sometimes get squeamish for absolutely no reason . . . .maybe coz i can see exactly what's going on?  With the allergy injections, I can only see the syrubgs and not the point of the needle going into the flesh.

FWIW - my pharmacist gave me 'training' about how to do belly shots.  i had to practive on a round rubber device.  *LOL*

I was a "jelly belly" shooter. Anywhere about 3 inches away from the navel.  The more fat the better .

you can shoot below your belly button, above your belly button but I wouldn't go so far up near the ribs....just don't shoot in the area right at the belly button on on the place where your pants sits because that might get irritated. It's not a biggie, i shoot B12 in my legs and peg in hte belly and peg is easier by a long shot....lots of belly jelly. I've never shot anywhere but in the belly for peg

Thanks! Tulips, Boy this is a first, never thought I’d be doing the belly jelly.
I know it’s not going to hurt but it’s just the idea, the last frontier if you will. Hey! How are you doing? Just chillin or looking for a new job, hang in there there is always another path that appears.

Thanks!... The procrit data sheet shows what looks like under the ribs and I just looked at the pagasys sheet and it had shown just above the waist line. Duh, on me.

Thanks!

I use the fatty tissue just above the waste line.
