I got a tattoo kinda big on my arm but I didn't even know I was pregnant then! Still don't think it's a good idea!  9 months at longest ain't that far to wait!

Any reputable tattoo place will not tattoo a pregnant woman. If you happen to find one, I wouldnt get it done there because it's not likely to be properly sterilized equipment and you risk infection that could harm the baby. Plus, you want a pro to do your tat, you'll have it was forever after all.

Just wait small or big just wait.Also many places wont risk there shop for a pregnant woman. To many risk for infection and by the way you can't get a tattoo if your nursing. You have to be completely done nursing for a tattoo artist to tattoo you.
