This mama is a baby... Anyone else?

Question

Ok is it just me or did the Tdap hurt after?? I was like a shot eeee yikes!! Nurse says it just feels like someone punched you in the arm. Well hello I don't know about y'all but for one I have never been punched in the arm and second it woke me up last night because it hurts (aches) sooo bad!!!! I can do Ivs and blood draws but shots owwwww!!! 😩

Answer

My doctor told me to move my arm around as much as possible after the shot to reduce pain and what do ya know it worked!

Answer

Nope, I couldn't sleep on my right arm for 4-5 days. It hurt to have any pressure on it.

Answer

Week later and it has finally stopped hurting! Those first few days were hard to sleep on that side for sure 😩

Answer

Mine hurt too -I didn't sleep well that night at all because I already wake up 5 times a night to switch sides sleeping -I wasn't able to sleep on my right side at all due to the soreness where I got the shot. 
Also the next day I had mild flu like symptoms but no fever but that's all normal. It will go away in a couple
Days

Answer

Shots tend to leave some soreness I think. IV's and blood draws only pinch while the needle is there, but shots just leave you sore. It's probably because the needle is going in deeper into tissue, as opposed to staying near the surface in a vein.

Answer

I really don't mind shots and will watch the needle as it goes it. But damn. I was sore for days!

Answer

Yup that shot hurts like hell for days!

Answer

Lol I get major anxiety over getting shots.. Full fledge panic attacks.. It's weird bc I can get blood drawn as well and have a few tattoos but getting a shot.... Nope! I usually end up with needle skid marks because I freak out and pull away everytime.. Poor nurses
