    I wanted to do my daughters foot on my foot but got stars instead. After baby number 2 is born ill do both their names on the side of my ribs.
    Just wait till after baby is born to get ur tattoo. It hasn't been proven that its safe to get it done while preggo

    Aww that's cute, I'm planning to do it for mothers day, she is due in 6 days time! So not long! Can't wait! What made you change your mind about the foot on your foot?
  • mommy2audreymommy2audrey
    I love the idea of falling colored diamonds for each child's birth stone...

    Pick a part of your body you like..

    I also love just the plain name and birthdate spiraling around the shoulder?
  • dobiemommadobiemomma
    My tattoo artist said eventually when I'm old it would glob and the stars would semi hold up their shape. Now that I think about it, by the time I'm old enough to have a wrinkly tattoo I. Prolly won't even remember my own name!

    Been thinking of the back of my neck just her name with something lol but not sure of that something, that sounds pretty the falling diamonds

    I think we should live life for now , so what if are tattos go wrinkly we will still have that special thing to them

    Wen my lil boy is born, im gonna put his foot an hand print on my shoulder along with his name and date of birth
  • JwigsJwigs
    Oh, I like the hand print on your shoulder idea! I want the foot on foot, by I understand what you mean by a wrinkled tattoo.

    On tattoos I feel and so do most ppl that it should mean a lot to you and if its to represent your kid then it will be special maybe you could wait to see what you kids personality is like and do something like that. I'm waiting till my son can write his name and have him write it on my body then get it tattooed. The reason most tattooest don't do work on prego women is the body is growing and stretching and can make for really bad work if they will tattoo you watch out they don't care about you or your piece

    @nihilist. That is such a beautiful idea for a tatto & yeah I won't get the tatto till she is born she's due in 6 days I wanna get one end of match beginning of April.


    @Jwigs @averysmom2011
    I do like the foot on foot idea too, yeah hand on the shoulder is sweet.
    Spose ill have to see speak to the tatto artist. Her nan wants to get a Nemo fish to represent her granddaughter as when I first found out I was pregnant I named my bump Nemo but now call her buy her real name Alyssa! Thanks for tips. Good luck with your tats

    So many options... but I myself like to he a little bit different. So many people have the same kind of tattoo... I would do something meaningful to your family or that represents your child. A birth month color or flower is pretty, name, simple dates or Roman numerals, and again... family things (like if u already have a nickname u cld do that or something to represent it.) I could give u tons of ideas if u need them lol
  • mrsrocketfield1221mrsrocketfield1221
    I like the date/names down between the neck and the shoulder(I have one there, just a very pretty spot on a lady). But I'd agree to go with somewhere you're comfortable and would want to show. Top of foot and wrist are pretty as well
  • cherry_bumpcherry_bump
    @mrsrocketfield1221

    What you have got on your neck already is what I originaly wanted just her name but want a little something else with it but not sure, if you don't mind I think you should spill some of them ideas you have got! Hehe

    @cherrybump I'm also having a lil gurl and her name is my next tat try putting her name by ya heart, wrist, leg or arm
  • cherry_bumpcherry_bump
    Okay, thanks :)
  • trying4firsttrying4first
    Believe me when I say you can't go by what a tattoo artist says. I worked at a nursing home and most of the body doesn't get wrinkled that much. Feet shoulders backs calves ankles lower back are not effected as much. Ribs and stomach I've only seen effected when your older and overweight and then lose a ton your skin isn't as elastic as it is now but most people lose that weight because they forget to eat or have a stroke. So you never know but tattoos should be something for yourself not everyone else
  • mrsrocketfield1221mrsrocketfield1221
    @cherry... a name in pretty font on the outside lower part of your foot (starting just under the ankle bone) is pretty. Something having to do with your families heritage along side a name or date, symbols in other languages for mother/daughter, zodiac flowers, a flower/hearts you like with your child's zodiac color in it, nicknames or pictures that represent nicknames, an ultrasound pic copied, something having to do with the season your child is born in (snowflakes, leaves, budding flowers on a tree), birds or animals/insects that represent wishes you'd want for your child, a quote or poem for your child (so many online that you can find), buttons with colors each representing your Fam -u, child, father, a heart with patches, pics from a book you plan to read to your baby girl (Dr Seuss, where the sidewalk ends...), stars, a crayon writing her name... so many thoughts! LOL

    Its all about personalizing for deeper meanings... this that will touch and remind you. :)
