Yes, another question..lol

Ok, tomorrow I have to go get my staples taken out. My question is, does it hurt really bad? I have had staples in my knee when I had to have surgery but they didn't hurt. If anyone can help me out I would greatly appreciate it. Either way it goes though, I will be glad that the things are out. They itch like crazy..lol Thanks in advance everyone!!

I am trying to recall if it hurt and I don't remember it hurting much if any at all. The itching was way worse and I was delighted to have them removed LOL!

Itching is a great sign it means the aera around the staples is healing.
I did not have staples

I have been operated on and had stamples removed from 6 surgeries and none of them hurt. Some did tingle or tickle but none hurt.
Soooooo. don't worry

it didn't hurt me at all...maybe a little pinch where I had one that was a little irritated but nothing big.  I felt sooooooooooooooo much better after I got mine out.... Good Luck and I hope all is well

Thanks everyone. I feel a lot better now. I will let you all know something tomorrow when I get back. Again thanks everyone!!

THEY ARE ALL LYING  !!!  Just kidding, I had to mess with you a bit.  You seem like a jovial person.  Heck your kids are always smiling in the pictures you have posted so you must be a fun mom and a fun person.

The staples towards the top didn't hurt but the closer to my belly button the more they seemed to 'pull" so it pinched a tad but it wasn't bad at all. It was like pulling the last little bit of an old scab off, just a little pull with a pinch but it was gone right away.  Maybe like a mosquito bite, you rub it and the sting goes away.

You will be fine, you gave birth you can make it through this relatively easy.  I had 51 staples and they took every other one out 10 days after surgery and the other half the following week.

Good luck and hold strong, maybe you will get a sticker  (no suckers allowed anymore, lol) !!!

Didnt hurt bad at all. I know some people are more sensitive to things like that but I was not bothered at all with it.
