You were SO brave, Kerria, and so were your littles.
I know the thought of doing it again must be very scary. It is like that for me with the dentist. I am SO scared every time I have to go. I take valium before. But you know what - each time I manage to get through it, it is just a tiny bit easier the next time. Maybe you can tell yourself and your littles that? You got through it this time, even though the doctor was so unhelpful. So you can get through it again.
I had injections in my back too. I had steroid injections into the muscles. I was being really brave and the doctor said, "Doesn't that hurt? It can't be the right place then." All the time I was being brave and he didn't want me to.
You did so well, Kerria. I think you should try to give yourself and your littles a treat for being so brave. If you find something nice to do as a reward, that might make it easier next time too.
