It’s called Libre and it doesn’t hurt.

I used it for a month. Doesn’t hurt putting it in. Doesn’t hurt having it in. It’s only a bit cumbersome and annoying if you roll around when you sleep :)

I used the NutriSense one. It doesn’t hurt. It’s not a needle per se. It’s a very flexible small like filament. I used one for 8+ months. You can accidentally knock it off when dressing for example as I did once. So it’s best to keep some type of bandaid covering. I never noticed it really except when dressing.

I have the Libre that can go in the arm if that the one your talking about and it doesn't hurt to me. Its the anticipation that makes it feel like it hurts. I love my libre.
