S'rose, Sara, my DH is exactly the same - such a sook! He goes green at the thought of needles and has to leave the room when I'm doing mine. I have to say though, I did have trouble with the whole action of stabbing myself to begin with! And I don't put the needle all the way in either. Despite my generous gut from all the drugs atm (and the comfort food ), I still think they're WAY too long and I'll push it through the skin and be injecting into my abdominal cavity!
