Enbrel injections

Hi all. Hope you are doing ok.

I am 30 yo women and diagnosed with RA two years ago. I have been on plaquenil and steroid tapers at times the last two years but alas we are transitioning to biologics. I just had a baby on April 3 and so anticipating a flare pretty soon/ beginning to feel one coming.

Is there a good day you recommend taking your injection ? I am currently on mat leave the next four months but curious for other moms/working moms if there is a good day- I was thinking Sunday evening may make most sense.

I’m really scared to start it/ the thought of injecting myself really scares me and I’m trying to hype myself up as I plan to take the first dose this week.

Any words or encouragement or anything you do that makes it easier?

I’m sure it is more a mental thing than actual pain- at least I’m hoping.

Thanks all!
