I've been doing some research on getting tatoos while being pregnant. So far i have read that it is safe if done in a sterile facility(all the regular stuff), and done after the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. What do you think? I would love to get another one and i like the idea of not having to wait until this is over.Am i crazy? I am going to talk to my doctor about it, i just would like to hear some opinions. :)

I say go for it. And I have a decent picture of something you could get. I can't post it on here though. I can email it to you if you'd like though?

I second that b/c after your manchild is born and your stomach starts to shrink, you can watch the fetus rapidly age and shrivel.
Alrighty-then Quick version........
AFTER the first trimester go for it~ be sure that:
The artist has a portfolio abnd that you are happy with their previous work.
Be sure that new needles, barrels and ink caps are used. Everything else should be autoclaved,
Be careful, have fun and name the next one after urge!!!!!!

Get something meaningful, relating to the point in your life which you are currently in.
Maybe something about your kid?

Get a tattoo of an ass on an ass on your ass. Wait, that's what my tattoo is going to be! Never mind!
Honestly, I say get a tattoo of something you like or something that means a lot to you. When I get my tattoo in a few years, it'll probably be Freddy Krueger's glove on my chest (well, maybe on my chest). That's something that I like and that I would love to have apart of me, literally! Though, I wouldn't mind if you got that ass-on-ass-on-ass tattoo. Just a thought.

get something meaningful that reprsents how you feel about the future member of your family so it has a more personaly feeling. I plan to get ying-yang with a little something extra in it when i turn 18.

Take it from me I have plenty of tattoo's and everyone of mine means something important to me, except one. That one I regret it, so make sure it is important enough for you to be able to look at it the rest of your life.

Mine don't really mean a whole lot to me, but they're visually pleasing. If it looks good, that's all I really care about.

Could I see that :D
Avoid "flash" . One of the most important things about tattoos is expressing your individuality. Why get something that several thousand others have. Make it very personal to you.
You can always have the Artist modify a piece of flash to your liking if you "just don't know" or you can take in a picture as well.
Most of my tattoos are totally original and you won't see them on anyone else. I do have a few flash pieces, but I got them when I was first starting out and getting into tattoos. Back then, Tattoo shops were very few and far between (1988). You will be much happier with something with meaning behind it.
You could just get a lifesize tattoo of yourself, only make it taller!
:D
