9mo old blood test

Any moms out there have to take their 9mo old to get blood work?

Where did they get the blood from? How did they do it? Good experience?

What kind of blood work? My son used to get his food pricked to test jaundice levels but neither of my kids had blood draws at 9 months old...

2 year blood draw for lead testing is from the hand so i would assume they would try there

My EBF baby had blood work at nine months to check his iron levels. They drew blood at the elbow. He hated it. I sat on the chair and had him wrapped facing forward, with my wrap covering one arm so I could help hold the other arm still. It actually worked better than his shots.
