It is such an awesome spot and only shows when I want it to, like in a swimsuit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-to-get-a-tattoo#post-333950 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 15:59:31 +0000 Mrsbells 333950@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You can try getting it done in henna first and see if you like it </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-to-get-a-tattoo#post-333943 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 15:57:29 +0000 ladyfingers 333943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got mine on the back of my shoulder because I didn't want it to stretch out and I wanted it to be hideable. It peeks out in certain sleveless tops but you could just have yours scooched in a little. Maybe wear the top that most reveals your back when you get the tattoo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-to-get-a-tattoo#post-333461 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 12:43:47 +0000 lovehoneybee 333461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have one on my shoulder blade, one between them and one on the back of my neck (and a fourth on my wrist--not at all able to be hidden). I have a 5th planned for my very upper butt/lower lower back (right under my underwear line, off to the side). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-to-get-a-tattoo#post-333430 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 12:33:25 +0000 chopsuey 333430@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have one near my pelvic bone. I got it low enough so it wouldn't stretch with future pregnancies. I gained 50+lbs with LO and packing on the weight with #2 too! </p> <p>My 24 year old self picked a good spot for it! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-to-get-a-tattoo#post-333413 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 12:24:31 +0000 Alivoo01 333413@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was also going to recommend the shoulder blade. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-to-get-a-tattoo#post-333409 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 12:22:43 +0000 Beebug 333409@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have two, one on my foot, the other on ribcage, I wasn't sure if the ribcage one would stretch being pregnant, and I am 39+4 now and it hasn't! It's probably the size equivalent of two newborn footprints side by side if that helps any :) It sits right along my bra line and down from there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-to-get-a-tattoo#post-333404 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 12:18:32 +0000 hilsy85 333404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was also thinking on your back, or maybe on your shoulder blade? Also, I don't know if all tattoo places do this, but when I was considering getting one, they did a sketch of the tattoo I wanted and put it on the place I wanted it so I could see if I liked it. It washed off after like a week or something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-to-get-a-tattoo#post-333403 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 12:18:30 +0000 knittylady 333403@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sounds too big to do on the feet, but yeah I've been liking that when I see it. And then there's the ribcage, which is really easy to hide all the time, but then you run the risk of it stretching out etc., Hmm, guess I'm not too helpful haha</p> <p>A friend of mine has her daughters hand print on her shoulder and it's really sweet. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-to-get-a-tattoo#post-333393 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 12:14:14 +0000 JennyLayneAZ 333393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You could always get it on your back - in the middle between your shoulder blades, but down far enough that it won't peek out the top of your shirts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-to-get-a-tattoo#post-333390 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 12:12:08 +0000 mrstilly 333390@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've always flirted with the idea of getting a tattoo, but never did. I never could think of anything that had enough meaning that I would want it on me in 5, 10 or 20 years. Then I had my son. I've been thinking about getting a tattoo of his newborn footprint somewhere. I'd want it to be pretty small and inconspicuous, since I work in a professional environment. </p> <p>In the summer I wear dress capris and sleeveless tops to work, so it would have to be hidden. I also want it to be somewhere that it won't get stretched/wrecked with a future pregnancy. And somewhere where there would be room for another footprint or two if/when we have more children. </p> <p>I was thinking about drawing it on with permanent marker and seeing how I like it after a while to make sure I want to do it. Suggestions on where I should get it? </p>
