tattoo while preggo

I'm 24 wks today and I got a tattoo done when I was I'm guessing on the implantation part of my pregnancy very very early like 2 wks. I obviously did not know I was pregnant. I was just wondering can this harm the baby in any way? I'm feel perfectly fine right now, just curious.

Reason as to y they say it's bad to get tattoos prego is because your bodies more sensitive. Can lead to infections and since your blood multiplies to work with you and baby you usually bleed a whole lot more. So long as you do not have an infection you will be fine.

If your blood work is normal then there's no need to worry, normally with tattoos you worry about dirty needless, hiv etc. they wood have let u know some thing  was wrong by now BC they check u for all that

Hi there.  I don't know for sure but am going to say probably that is fine!  I think all will be okay.  When you have your first ob appointment, you can run it by them.  But it is kind of one of those after the fact things where you just didn't know.  People have done all sorts of things linked with causing issues with babies prior to knowing they were pregnant and babies are just fine!  So, I'm guessing all will be good.  take care
