Is it safe to have a tattoo during pregnancy?

It is very unlikely that you will find a tattooist who will be willing to perform a tattoo for you if you are pregnant. I contacted a number of tattooists while researching this subject, and all of them said they would not perform a tattoo if the client was pregnant. They gave a variety of reasons for this.

It is not unusual for people having a tattoo to faint or pass out. The tattooists felt that they were not prepared to take the risk of a pregnant woman fainting.

Several tattooists commented that they believed the action of having a tattoo may prove so shocking that it may lead the woman to go into labour! There is some evidence that stressful events in pregnancy may result in premature labour but having a tattoo has not been identified as one of these significantly stressful life events in any literature available to midwives. Interestingly there were comments about the ink that was used during the tattooing process. The tattooists felt that there wasn't enough known about any possible effects the ink, which may be partly absorbed into the body, may possibly have on the baby.

It therefore seems sensible to err on the side of caution and wait to have a tattoo until after the baby is born, rather than take any unnecessary risks during pregnancy.

During pregnancy, the way a woman feels about her body and her body image is altered. Something you may feel you would like to have during pregnancy may be something you regret after the baby is born. This may be another good reason for waiting until after the birth.

If you have a tattoo during pregnancy on skin that has been stretched, or you have put on a considerable amount of weight, bear in mind that the appearance of the tattoo may change after the baby is born. This is another reason for waiting.

If you are determined to have a tattoo in pregnancy despite the advice above, make sure that you choose a practitioner who uses disposable needles and whose equipment is scrupulously clean and has been sterilised properly. If unclean equipment is used, there is a real possibility of catching a serious infection, including Hepatitis B, which could have significant effects on you and your baby.

hæ, ég myndi bíða, ef líkaminn lendi í líkamlegu stressi getur hann bara losað sig við fóstrið…
þess vegna fáum við morgunógleði t.d. áhveðnar fæðutegundir áuka á hana og aðrar slá á hana, t.d kjöt sem getur auðveldlega valdi matareitrun og auka þess vegna á ógleði, en ávextir slá á, ekki mikil hætta af þeim :)

Ég held það sé ekki sniðugt… Myndi allavega ekki taka áhættuna á því
Til hamingju!! :)

Til hamingju

Mér var sagt þegar ég var ólétt og ætlaði í tattoo, að húðin bregst öðruvísi við blekinu útaf öllum hormónunum. Hef ekki hugmynd um hvort að það sé rétt eða ekki, en ég ákvað að bíða bara frekar nokkra mánuði.

Það er ekki í lagi og alveg óþarfa áhætta :)

Annars einmitt held ég að þú finnir ekki flúrara sem er tilbúinn að flúra ólétta manneskju.
En annars til hamingju með óléttuna:)
