Tattoos and pregnancy?

Question

So I want a hip tattoo but a lot of people have told me to wait till after I have kids bc when my stomach grows it will stretch the tattoo. But ive also been told from a few people it doesn't. Has this happen to anyone?

Answer

My butterfly hip tattoo is now a dragon.. I would wait until you're finished having children.. And if your mother did/didn't have stretch marks has nothing to do with you. My mother and grandmother didn't and I did!

Answer

See my look okay

Answer

I have a large tattoo on my hip and I survived a pregnancy and I'm pregnant with my second and it still looks the same.

Answer

I got a tattoo of a star on my his when I was 18 and this is what pregnancy did to it. It doesn't bother me since that is no longer a part of my body I "show off"

Answer

If you get stretch marks, it can ruin it, but it's really up to you. I've been talking to my artist about it a lot because I'm in the middle of a large piece that will wrap around and debating if I want to wait or not.

Answer

I have a tattoo across my entire stomach.. I'm def worried about how it will look ? Everyone is different though,   so there is no telling how things will turn out!

Answer

If it stretches just get something new on top of it after you are done having kids

Answer

I got tattoos on my hips they look okay so far.

Answer

I would ask your mom if she has stretch marks, if she does chances are you will to if you have children.  If not go for it.  I have two tattoos one on each hip. I made sure mine are low enough and to the side enough that they really won't be bothered when I have kids. Besides even if you need up with a few stretch marks through your tattoo you'll be so Happy with your baby that it won't matter. Good luck!!!

Answer

I got a small rib tattoo. Was not affected. Though I'm sure the hip will be. People are right. Wait on the hip. But a rib, shoulder, even a foot or leg tattoo would be somewhat safe zone.
