Send blood work vibes UPDATED
So I am going to the hospital after work today to attempt to get the 5 tubes of blood drawn that the nurse tried to draw on Monday at my appointment. Every time I have a bad experience with getting my blood drawn I get worried that the next attempt won't be successful either so I am nervous.
Any vibes you can send my way are appreciated! I am going to chug water all day (like I have been doing ever since I found out I am pregnant. I am so sick of water already!) and hope for the best!
Update: SUCCESS! The lady drawing my blood got it on the first try. I got a little worried after the first 3 tubes because she said it slowed way down but she got enough for all 5 tubes. Awesome! Thanks for all your vibes...I'm sure they helped too!

Oh, ask for a butterfly! I am a really really hard stick. My last b/w (the same 5 viles), it took 5 techs and over an hour. Finally, they used a butterfly with a baby needle and got the blood.

Also, if you ever find a good spot or a trick let them know the people in the labs actually appreciate it when you can point them in the right direction.
