I have a tattoo in the same area (you can look at my photos). I`ve only had one kid and do NOT plan on having another but everyone`s bodies are different. Your taking a chance when you get pregnant again. It could possibly not look `right` after a child but it could look perfectly fine. You just never know until afterwards.

I don`t know if it will stretch out or not. But I wanted to tell you that you can`t base how stretchmarks will be with a second baby, based on the first. With my first I got one teeny, tiny stretchmark on my upper belly. With my second, I got 3 little ones on my hip and 2 little ones on my lower belly. I think it`s different with each pregnancy :)

I have one around my hip, and when I had my first baby at 22, it stretched but went back to normal, even with a huge weight gain. But then I had my son at 27, gained less weight, but the tattoo is now a huge black blob. Maybe too much stretching? IDK, but I`d go with ladobruk`s advice- wait until you`re done having babies

I have a tattoo in the same exact spot....It does stretch out a little and the color fades, so you will prob have to have a touch up...but mine went back to relatively normal!

Its different for everyone depending on many things-elasticity of their skin, how much they gain, if theyll get stretch marks (stretch marks over tattoos are....odd looking lol)...I have a hip one and it just looks like wider and different and NOT as cute as before. And Im thin and didnt get stretch marks besides a couple light ones, didnt gain alot of weight with my pregnancies and lost it real fast. I wont be getting anymore anywhere on my torso bc of that risk of it getting ruined with future pregnancies...

Oh, and I already had a tattoo at the top of my back and that tickled compared to this one ;)

I have a tattoo in the same spot but it ends about an inch above my hip and it`s about 3 inches wide, it`s about the size of your hand from the base of your palm to the tips of your fingers. It didn`t stretch even a tiny bit and I gained 42lbs in my last pregnancy. The only thing I`d warn you about it HOW MUCH IT HURTS!!!! When I went in I thought, really, how much could it hurt, lol, and man, it frickin hurt. It`s in a great spot though to not be affected by how big you get during pregnancy. Good luck!
