My just 4 year old has to have blood taken for some tests next week.
We have been given cream to rub on both elbow insides an hour before the appointment.
Is there anything else we can do to lessen the pain/scaryness for him tho ?
He is usually OK with doctors but has never had blood taken before and its not nice from my own experience.
