Any tattooed Mama's here?? Or thinking about getting inked?

I have 3:) I have a tree frog on my ankle, a butterfly on my back(both done at 17...can you tell??? :rofl:) and a large Polynesian set of wings scrawled across my lower back. I said I would never do it again...that was 12 years ago...I've changed my mind :wink: I'm looking at getting a large fairy sitting on a toadstool in the middle of my upper back/neck area as well as my kids incorporated into the tattoo somehow...maybe a certain flower for each or names written into the leaves of the vines I plan on having coming away from the fairy, across my shoulders/back. I'm so excited to start it in a few years!
All my tats are black so I can't wait for a really colourful tattoo:) And to top it off my 60 year old mother is going to come with me when I get mine done...and get one herself! :bigsmile:

Any other inked GD'ers ???

I have butterflies on my back! I was 20 when I had them done though LOL

I have a celtic tribal one on my upper left arm... black with little bits of purple! I am going to get it redone and have it go around my arm and then either have my kids first names added or just the letter of their first names.

I want another tat but sometimes I really only like the one beacuase I can hide it if I go to work or church.

I don't have any thank God--I say that cause all the ones I ever thought of having....I look back and think so glad I didn't go through with it. I kinda want one now--something that has to do with my kids that way I probably wont get tired of it. But I change my mind so often and get tired of things so quickly that I don't think I'm a good candidate! But I love looking at others' tats--especially the colorful ones!

That's exactly why I don't have one! I'm way too indecisive. I really wish a had just one really sweet one that I'd love forever but I keep changing my mind...I also love looking at other people's. My friend in college had a little boy reaching up and catching a star w/a butterfly net. It was on her left shoulder. It was really cute.

I have 5 and looking to expand to maybe one more and need to add to an existing one. I had my first one on my shoulder blade of my favourite animal in colour, next was a chinese symbol that means eternity and my DH name underneath, next was just an arty/swirly one across my lower back, then I have butterlflies on my thigh with 3 of my girls names (this is the one I need to add too as it doesn't have my youngest DD on it yet) and my last one is lower torso.

Tattoos are either something you love or dislike. I personally love them and found them highly addictive. I don't regret any of mine at all.

I have 3....a large baby dragon with a rose hanging out of his mouth on my belly in blues and purples......a blue rose on my foot with a purple butterfly sitting on it and my husbands name with 7 little stars for the babies we have lost (one set of twins)......and on the inside my left wrist I have the chinese symbol for daughter with mist rising up from it and 5 butterflies in purple, green, pink, blue and yellow...to represent my 5 girls.

I have 2 of them, both black and gray....my family crest on my back and on the outside of my leg by my ankle, I have a huge one with my girl's names and their birth flowers which I drew myself (and the tat artist tweaked to look good on the spot it's in)....I LOVE it and get so many compliments. It's about 4 inches tall. If and when I have another child, I plan to get something with his or her name on my left arm somewhere, probably the inner wrist.

I love how tats are not so out of the norm anymore. I have a couple of friends with sleeves of them (women) and they are AWESOME. I could not do that, but I love how people don't freak about them anymore.

I say DO IT to anyone wanting one with your child's names, because that is pretty much the most lasting and significant thing you could ever have in your life, so if you choose a really beautiful design, you will never get sick of it.

I am planning to get my daughter's name tattoed under my collarbone

I have 2 as well, a rose on my left shoulder blade and a daisy chain around my ankle. I'm planning to get the flowers colored to my kids birthstones but wanted to wait till we were done to do it.
