    I got mine in the butt and it didn't bother me at all. They told me that it would hurt more in the arm.

    I got mine in the arm. Like PP said, it wasn't too bad. My arm felt a little sore afterwards, but it went away quickly.

    I got mine last week in the arm. Didn't hurt anymore than any other needle. The spot was a little tender if I bumped it on anything for the rest of the day.

    They refused to give it to me in the arm, so I got it in my butt instead, it only sting a little and that was it.

    I've never had one, but my friend who got one a few weeks ago said it hurt more than a regular vaccination.

    I got mine in the butt. It actually didn't hurt me at all. And I'm the hugest baby when it comes to needles. I was freaking out for no reason.

    Didn't hurt at all, honestly I barely felt it.  I got it right above my butt cheek in the hip area.

    1st one I got in the butt - didn't hurt (needle was way more intimidating).  2nd one, I got in the arm - again didn't hurt (regular needle).

    I had it twice - once for 1st trimester bleeding and again at 28 weeks.  I got it in my arm both times and it didn't hurt.

    Got it on top of my butt/hip area.

    It did hurt a little, just burned for a moment. Then that area was sore if I sat on it too long for a day or so.

    Nothing to cry about tho :)

    This pregnancy, I've had it twice. THe first in the first tri was in the thigh, actually. The second one was in the butt and it actually hurt a bit, but mainly because apparently they refrigerate the vaccine so it burns going in.

    Had mine in my butt this morning. It stung a little, but really wasn't as bad as I thought. Exposing my butt was almost worse than the shot! LOL
