[quote=Anonymous]I second the suggestion for topical lidocaine. I had a HORRIBLE experience with my first labor heplock, moreso because needles/arm sticks don't usually bother me so it was unexpectedly shocking. I asked for topical lidocaine for my second labor and it made a WORLD of difference. They even had to do my IV twice (nurse forgot to secure the first one and it popped out during my next contraction...) and I barely noticed. (Yes the lido is injected but its a tiny prick compared to the IV.) [/quote]
