Ouch.
I hope my future foster child appreciates what i just had to go through 
I sqeezed a physical in this morning to comply with thier crazy deadline on the paperwork, and of course, part of the annual physical is blood work. unfortunately i have the worst veins known to man so this morning i was poked 3 times by my doc, then sent to the lab, poked two more times, wrapped in hot compresses, and they finally got some blood out of my hand. I have bruises and bandaids running up and down my arms - i look rediculous!
The social worker is gonna think i picked up a heroin habit.

I'm sorry :-( I'm a bleeder, but a lot of times I'll point the nurse straight to my hand and ask them to use the blue butterfly needle (the one for babies) and then they get it on the first try.
Can you wear long sleeves when the social worker stops by? ;-p
oh, that stinks! :-( i'm sure the sw will understand, though.
I feel your pain. I have the worst veins known to man. During TTC and my entire pregnancy (lots of blood taken) I pointed to my hand (or wrist - the other place they could get it) and tell them to use a butterfly needle. I was always showing up to work looking like hell.
It'll be worth it. I have a good feeling about tonight!
