Yeah huni, I had one and it wasn't to bad at all, the needle is long and that's the worst part, the anathetic not the CVI itself, but they do it by ultrasound, I myself didn't watch but DH did, it's done like that so they can see baby and where the needle is going, it's ok, I myself don't mind needles so I was ok, but the anesthetic needle did sting and it was just that a sting when it went in, the CVI needle and instrument is a bit thicker, but your totally numb by then and that didnt hurt at all, HONEST the just get some fluid from the sac and from around baby ok, it's not that bad sweety, the waiting afterwards for the results is the hardest.

Good luck hun. O thinking of you.xxxx
