    needle phobic

    ok so I'm not pregnant yet but I'm looking ahead

    i have to bio sons and both were born by c-section and one none bio son and none bio daughter

    with both my section i have to be put to sleep as i am so needle phobic even to get one in my arm makes me start shaking and freakingout . i don't have any blood taken when i'm ot pregnant and i don't have shots

    i think my fear comes from when i was a child i have hyper mobility and as i kid was in and out of hospitals for a few things inclong a lot of uti's . ever trip meant bloods taken and they always went for my elbow joint and that hurts like hell due to my hyper mobility . so i associate needles with pain and swear i caneven feel the blood been drown out . and even if they get it in after a few sec i start freaking and yelling " get it out get it out get it out " hysterically

    my response to needles is a full blown phobic response and to even give blood or let them put a drip in my takes ever bit of my strength and if they don't get it in 1st time that's i want out i nearly faint most times and i feel sick . also i have bad veins so they never get it 1st time NIVER !

    anyway i will need another section as i don't go into labour at all . but this will be my last child and i feel bad dh will not be in the room again . i know he seen his other son and daughter be born but it be nice to let him see one of ours get born too .

    the needle in my back scares the hell out of me you see . yet i can happily inject a cat or watch my child be done lol

    can anyone help me find a way to have it done and please don't tell me to shut my eyes!, try to look at what your scared off eg spiders and imagine what you feel, shutting my eyes wont help

    also i had gas and air with my 1st it did not help the still had to end up giving up and just kocking me out

    I have a problem looking at sharp objects. When I see the tip of a pin, or needle, or pencil, it tickles my eye balls.. or tickles my brain. Anyway, it is weird.
