They always blow my vein in my right arm because it rolls. Then i get a softball sized bruise and people think I'm being abused. But the last time i got my blood drawn i forgot to tell the lady to do my left arm because my right is so messed up so she did my right arm and *bam* she did amazing! She got it the first try (which has never happened) and i didn't even bruise! I gave her a high five! Lol
I told the woman if she digs around for a vein in my arm i was literally going to get up and punch her. no joke. but she did really good, i wanted to hug her haha.
@keisha gestational diabetes test, you usually get it done around 27 wks but i tested early bc im "high risk"
I have the WORST veibs EVER! last time it took 6 attempts all different veins and they gave up. No blood. And I drink 4 ltrs of water a day so its not that. I was once ultrasounded on my arm to find a vein. I also get MASSIVE brusies. People think I'm being abused! No joked lol.
Its honestly not even that bad, i just psych myself out more then anything haha. i got home and was like "AUSTIN I DID SO GOOD I GOT A STICKER AND EVERYTHING!!!" He just looked at me like "really? A sticker?" haha he let me put it up in his garage though :)
wen i use to go to a different dr that my mom nd brother go to she would always give me lab papers to go get my blood done cuz i never had it done nd she always wanted it but i was so scared to get it done so i would always throw away the papers, nd since becoming preo i had no choice pretty much haha nd wen i did it the first time i thought to myself like its not that bad... i juss cnt look at them while they do it.. but everytime still that they take my blood my hands always get all sweaty nd i get all nervous even tho i already know wat it feels like
Aww lol. I can draw other peoples blood just fine but when it comes to getting mine drawn I almost always have a full blown anxiety attack.
haha congrats! the things we do for our babies :)
