Guest guest Posted September 18, 2004 Report Share Posted September 18, 2004 Hi le, I only give my daughter the shots in her legs. I do the left leg one day and the right the next. I use different areas on the legs and have plenty of space to do so without hitting the same spot even in the same week. Dr " H " was fine with this given that she was so young.

Guest guest Posted September 19, 2004 Report Share Posted September 19, 2004 I basically just use the Legs (theighs) and arms.... I have done the butt, but Liam dosen't really like it and he wears a pull up to bed and It's not easily accessable.. I give him his shots after he is asleep.....Sometimes he will half wake up, but most of the time not.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 19, 2004 Report Share Posted September 19, 2004 Hi le My son Adam was the same way with shots in the arm. We were never trained on the butt so it was down to 2 legs. For the last year or more he's only preferred one leg. My endo said it is perfectly fine and he checks the injection sites at each check up. I move all around his thigh to make sure I'm not doing the exact same spot each night. But I was told that was just fine to do one leg only. Debby GH question > > Coby has had 4 shots now.

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2004 Report Share Posted September 20, 2004 Hi le, When Dr H's office showed us how to do his shots, we were told to only use his legs because he had no fat on his arms and it would hurt more.
