Hey Zola
The first tatt I got was of 3 dolphins on my right shoulder blade about 9yrs ago & then about 7yrs ago I got a blackwork band with a rose threaded in it on my left ankle. I could have so easily gotten more as I found them rather addictive! However as I said before now I might wait & see what happens as far as another baby goes first.
Please forgive me if I ask things that you have already talked about but I was wondering if you & DH are trying for another baby yet? My DH & I have spoken about it but haven't set any firm dates yet as I am not ready for that just now. But I am hoping that we get around to it sooner rather than too much later, we have said we'd like to give ourselves about 6mths to come to terms with losing Alex & all that trying for another baby involves. By involves I mean all the stress & worry that I'm sure we'll (I know I will anyway) find ourselves coping with. I really am trying to tell myself that if my OB has confidence in our ability to have another baby then I should try & let go of my strong fear & try to look on the bright side of it all. I know that right now I'm not in the right mind frame to be PG anyway, am way too scared of what happened with Alex happening again & I think that until I can let go of that fear PG is probably the last thing I need to be. But we'll get there & when the time is right we'll make that next step.
Hope that you & DH are well & enjoying life
