getting a tattoo while pregnant? [one NOT on my stomach or sides; on forearm]

Question

before you vote read this!
so I'm 23 weeks pregnant with twins and I'm considering getting a tattoo of my wedding date. yes I've googled it and it said the risk of infection and things are dangerous, how you shouldn't get one on your stomach or sides, etc. HOWEVER, I want to get mine on my right forearm. and I'm also going to a professional to get it done. I've gotten all of my previous tattoos (4) and they are very clean and very good. what are your thoughts?

Answer

They won’t (or shouldn’t, if it’s a reputable shop) tattoo you while you’re pregnant or breastfeeding.

Answer

Any professional and reputable tattoo artist won’t tattoo a pregnant woman anywhere on her body. If they did I’d be very concerned. Just wait until after you’ve given birth, it won’t kill you.

Answer

I don't think you're gonna die if you wait till you give birth. It doesn't matter where on your body you want a tattoo.. you're pregnant, no tattoo shop should agree to tattoo you while you're pregnant.. least not a decent shop.. 🤦🏻‍♀️🙄

Answer

I wouldn’t trust any place that tattoos pregnant people. It’s not worth the risk. If you get an infection anywhere on your body it can affect the baby.

Answer

No 😒✋

Answer

Reputable tattoo artists will not tattoo pregnant women because of the risk of infection

Answer

Most tattoo shops won’t do it if you’re pregnant

Answer

Professional shops won't even do tattoos or piercings if you're pregnant. It is a huge infection risk and liability risk to the shop if they do it, hence the reason they normally don't.

Answer

I wouldn’t because of the chance of infection.

Answer

no professional shop will let you anyways
