i've gotten a tatoo, its been 20 days already and i still think its too early to tell if im pregnant, ok my boyfriend came in me 20 days ago. 3 times. the 13th of march. today its the 2nd of april, i just got a tattoo yesterday and i read on the net about tattoos and pregnancy if itll effect the pregnancy.. and it said nothing should go wrong with the pregnancy just be sure that their equipment is sterilized and they wear gloves and all.. i made sure of that, but ever since i got it done like about an hour later my abdomen really hurts like from below my breast down to my abdomen, and it feels like when you work out the muscles you havent worked out in a while. MUSCLE TENSION, and it would come every 5-6 hours or so.. i dont know whats wrong. by the way how long do you guys think itll be the best time to check if im pregnant?... i'm already 2 weeks and 6 days. thats IF i am pregnant.

What’s done is done! There is no going back and I hope there won’t be any problems with you getting tattooed, as it might have happened before you actually got pregnant, you never know. In case you were in your late pregnancy then everybody would suggest you not to go tattoo yourself as when you are carrying a baby your body is going through various changes and the organism is under a certain stress so being pinched by the needle wouldn’t be necessary at all.
As the matter of you being pregnant, you first have to state when was your period due, is it late and how much late? When we have the date then we could discuss about your pregnancy, but for now I’d tell you that you can always buy a home pregnancy test and do it yourself, the most accurate result would be about 7 days after the date you were supposed to get your period.
If you have any further questions- feel free to ask!

If your last period ended on the 12th of March and you had intercouse on the 13th it is reasonably unlikely that you are pregant. To get pregnant you need to have ovulated. In someone with a regular monthly cycle this normally occurs around two weeks before your period. If you are pregnant then it should definately show on a HPT now.
Hope this helps

I am 22 weeks pregnant and a lot of things have happened to me since I found out. I decided to remember this time in my life with a tattoo......after a lot of research on my own and with my doctor's consent I did get a tattoo on my lower back at 20 weeks. I'm fine, the baby is fine, and yes I can have an epidural if I so chose, which I do not. The biggest concern, and the only legitimate one, is: Is the parlor clean and steril? So don't worry, unless you got it on your belly, then it might stretch! Good luck and congrats if you are indeed pregnant!
