Guest guest Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 What level of pain do your children experience with the insertion of the subQ needles and does it get better over time? We've been doing them using Ethyl Chloride spray, but he is still really upset and saying they hurt. We think much of it is anxiety, but wondering if any of you have had luck using LMX or Emla first? I have LMX so I can try that next week. Also, we used 2x2's and paper tape with skin prep first and it worked really well. The tape came right off with no issues. It held everything in place and it's cheap so I guess we will just go with that for now. Mom to Caelan 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
