For many, the need to donate venous blood is associated with something creepy. Needles, syringes, the sight of blood… brrr. You don't want to think about it, do you?
In Mother's House, everything is not like that at all. We know how to collect blood quickly and almost painlessly, so that the child does not have unpleasant memories after the reception.
However, there are some tips that will help you prepare emotionally for donating blood. First of all, it is important that a trip to the doctor is not a surprise for the child. The day before, it is better to talk about how everything will happen and warn that it will hurt a little, but you will be there.
In addition, to leave pleasant memories, promise the child a gift that will bring him pleasure: a toy, a trip to attractions, etc. And after donating blood, be sure to fulfill your promise.
Also, let's consider other tips that are not related to emotional preparation:
— Tests should be taken in the morning and on an empty stomach. Meals the day before should not be heavy either. Therefore, you should wait with fried potatoes 
— Do not forget about the drinking regime.
— If the child is taking medicines or vitamins, it is better to take a blood sample before taking the medicine and be sure to notify the doctor.
— Before taking blood tests, it is recommended to exclude active physical activity.
As you can see, donating venous blood at Mother's House is not scary at all. We perform analyzes for both children and adults, so we are waiting for you any day of the week.
