Needle seemed like it was being pushed out

After today's injection, the needle felt like it was being pushed out on its own. There was no extra blood or pain involved. It just seemed odd as this is the first time I have experienced this. Is this normal?

Anything return into the barrel? Gear, blood? If not, its simply a bit of pressure.

Nothing returned into the barrel at all. It just felt like there was some pressure pushing the needle out. Just wanted to make sure if it was normal.

Youll be fine. If it happens again, you'll know it isn't a problem.

Might have been the muscle contracting cause some pressure......

Thank you for the responses.

There was no extra bleeding after and there is absolutely no PIP, now six hours later, so I'm confident there's nothing wrong. Just wanted to confirm with some more experienced members if it was normal, as this is my first cycle and at 10 weeks, this is the first time I've experienced this.

Again thank you for the responses.

I used to notice that the further along in my cycle I got, it became harder and harder to penetrate the muscle tissue of the glute and it started feeling like the needle was getting pushed out. Initially I thought it was pressure from oil Id just injected, but a Dr. told me it was due to muscle contraction, especially if you are shooting the same area frequently. Thats why this cycle im going to experiment for the first time with alternative sites.
