tattoos for women with children image
Q. Both my friend and I are considering tattoos on the sides of our stomach and up the side of our chests. But we are concerned about what happens to the tat both during and after pregnancy. Its obviously going to stretch but what will it look like after the weight loss?
Will it be something easily corrected with a touch up from the tattoo artist?

It really depends on the elasticity of your skin. Every woman is different. Some women don't get any stretchmarks on their belly during pregnancy, however, some women get them from their pelvic area all the way above their belly button. I would say it is a huge risk if you don't know how your skin will appear after having a baby. I would take a look at your mom's stomach to see what the texture is like... it doesn't necessarily mean your skin will be the same as hers, but you will at least get a good idea. Also, if you have sister(s) that have had children, take a look at their bellies as well. One thing to keep in mind... if you get the tattoo and then you become pregnant later on in life and your belly is covered in stretchmarks, you will probably want to keep it hidden anyway... so no one will even notice whether or not your tattoo has "altered" it's shape or appearance. As far as an artist doing a "touch-up"... that won't be easy, because stretch marks are basically scars, and it is difficult to tattoo over scars and have it appear consistent with skin that isn't scarred.

What can a woman do to heal from a miscarriage?

What is the best way to heal emotionally from a miscarriage? Is it possible that healing still needs to take place even when the miscarriage happened several years earlier? What can a woman do to heal from a miscarriage? Thanks in advance for answering!

Bobby D - knowing that miscarriage happens in that many pregnancies does not help.You are a man and you will never know the emotional attachments to a pregnancy
Time.A woman may also seek counselling should she want to.Losing a pregnancy is hard,and like any loss it has to be mourned.As there is no set time period for grief or how long the process will last,then time is the only thing that will help.Some women find a 'funeral' helps them to move on.Release some balloons with the name of your child on (it doesn't matter if you knew the sex,go with your gut on whether it was a boy or girl and use the name they would have be given).Several of my friends have had miscarriages and many of them have a tattoo to commemorate their lost baby.One of them also has a charm bracelet with charms representing her children,including a star to represent the one she lost.Perhaps something like that would help.One of them buys a card at Christmas and on her due date to put in her memory box about her daughter (but she was a still birth).It's also normal and OK to get weepy around the time you would have given birth.Surround yourself with people who love you and talk,talk,talk - it really does help.Wishing you all the best
