*************************************************************************************************************************************** I am a tattoo artist,and I can help everyone with these questions.First of all ,alot of these questions and statements are totally NOT TRUE !!!
I have been doing tattoos for over 15 years,and I hope that you will listen to what I say here.and if you have any more questions please feel free to email me tattz77@yahoo.com.........
1---you are NOT at risk of infection because you have a tattoo,when you get an epidural.the epidural itself is what runs you a risk of infection, just ask your doctor !!!
2---everyone is different.some peoples tattoos stretch out and stay a little messed up,and some don't.
3---I DO NOT suggest getting a tattoo if your pregnant,simply because you CAN wait.Why run the risk?is it really worth it?
4---sometimes doctors act like they know about tattooing because it is close to a surgical procedure.but they only know how to be a doctor(hopefully a good one)........
I am a professional Tattooist and over the years I have Tattooed over 5,000 different people.please email me if you have any questions.

Is it fine to get a tattoo while you are pregnant even though you might not be that far along?

I have a large tattoo on the lower part of my back. I ended up having a c-section and when they did the spinal, they said that it would actually help in finding the epidural spot, so no it is not true!

BROOKE
I have a tattoo on my lower back and I was told that I have nothing to worry about from my doctor. I could also depend on the size of the tattoo you want to get, mines a chines symbol so its not very big, but if its a big tattoo and take up alot of the lower back, chances are you wont be able to get the drugs. Also, It doesnt hurt your tattoo because they dont place the needle into the tattoo for fear that ink could get into the bloodstream.

No you cannot...the ink from the tattoo goes into your system and it may harm the baby.

Okay I have a tat on my lower back and it was just a little harder for the anesthsiologist to find the correct spot for the epidural, but I did have one. So yes you can get an epidural with a tat. Answer to #2 yes you can get a tat while being preggo. Only if the artist goes too deep will it really get into your blood stream. Dont worry about that at all.i think a lot of people are misinformed.

I was wondering if anyone else has gotten a tattoo while they were pregnant and if it was OK. I just found out I was pregnant a week after I had already started a full back piece, and I would like to get as close to finishing it as I can if it won't hurt anything.

Not true at all! Tattoos become permanant after about 2-3 weeks. If you go in salt water, put things on them that your not suppose to etc during those 2 -3 weeks, it will ruin them. I have several tattoos and none were ruined by the drugs for labor pains, epidural etc.

No that is not true. I have a sun on my lower back and had it before my first child. The doctor who did the drugs thought it was really cute and actually administred the epideral through the middle of it and it still looks the same as when I got it 5 years ago

I have heard that after two years of getting a tattoo in the lower back that is fine to go on through with an epidural.
