As a nurse who works on the women's floor. We try for whatever is best and can get. If we put it in your hand I usually try for your non dominate hand there are some spots on the forearm and arm that are good veins. It all depends on how hydrated and how well your veins are to find. Iv's in the AC (where they usually draw blood at the bend of your elbow) are usually easy except it's an easy vein to get kinked and make iv pumps go crazy if you bend it just right.
IV Needle...
Do we HAVE to get stuck with the needle on the top of our hand when we go into labor?? Or can they put it in our arm? I have this fear of it going into my hand lol !
