Any less pain options to check blood glucose

Hi,

I was diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes at 26 weeks. It took 2 weeks to get a Nutrionist appointment. She advised to glucose monitoring.

To summarize am shit scared of anything poking me. Terrified of blood draws. I am clueless how i am supposed to do this 5 or 6 times a day. I cant sleep since i was told to get a glucose meter and since i read i have to poke my finger.

Please advise me anything that helps. Less pain alternative, suggestions to decrease pain, your experiences. Anything you think can help me.

Right now i am terrified, scared and too worried
