Absoulutely not. I'm 15 and got my Hep A shot today, I also got plenty others and it doesn't hurt a bit. You don't even realize it's over when it is. Look away if it really bothers you, then after you'll realize it wasn't bad at all. I also take Growth Hormone Deficiency shots every night and they hurt worse than boosters (and they barely pinch). Hope I gave you some confidence :-).

They are boosters! They won't hurt you a bit!!!
They won't hurt you 12 yrold either- nothing more than a stick then its over with! Look at it this way it is much better that they get thse shots than get seriouly sick or die.
If by some chance they do get alittle sore just put some ice on the spot and give them some tyenol. Poof all better.

I don't know what shots you will be getting but like any other shots they won't hurt long. A sharp poke and then it might be a little bit sore for about a day. Nothing to be concerned over.

you will probably get some boosters and a tetanus shot. the tetanus hurts real bad and your arm will be sore for a while. but when you get home take some advil and a warm bath and it will be ok.

Tetnus and MMR-- They keep you from contracting viruses that can kill you. As for pain, if they are giving them to you in the arm, It will sting, but not bad. They gave one to me in the hospital and put it into my hip and it Hurt really bad.

Nah, it won't hurt if you don't think about it. It's just a series of pin pricks that you have to go through. Think of it as a game. and have fun.
