This was, by far, the worst day we've had in Ainsley's first year. She went to have her blood drawn at her 12 mo check-up. The first technician tried twice - to no avail. Ainsley screaming in my arms as I try to hold her still. The second technician tried another vein, sliding the needle in and out several times - no blood into the needle. Finally, they pricked her finger and squeezed the blood out one drop at a time... enough to fill two small vials. It was awful. 4 band-aids later...
Here is baby-Ains, a trooper, checking out the damage.
