Imagine that you are a young and carefree 18-year-old girl. Don't worry, we promise that this isn't going to get creepy. You're out with your friends, enjoying the newfound freedom of college. You decided to head to the tattoo shop with some of your besties to get a symbol of your friendship that will never, ever, ever end. What could be more perfect than a tattoo?
You've picked a design from the wall — a cute little daisy with five petals, one for each member of your crew. It's perfect. Now you have to figure out where on your body to place the tattoo. It needs to be somewhere easy to conceal so that you don't get grounded when you return home, but also in a place that you can show off when you want to look rebellious. A lightbulb flashes in your head — the stomach! It'll look super cute with the right outfit (and, OMG, a piercing!) but you'll be able to cover it when you're around your super conservative grandmother from Utah. You slap your $100 on the counter and an hour later you and your friends are bonded for life.
The tattoo in happier times!
And for years that tattoo was everything you wanted it to be. Then something happened — you got pregnant. Everything started to change. Your belly started to grow and your tattoo started to stretch. And it wouldn't stop. It just kept growing and growing and growing... until...
Oh God! What is that?! This poor tattoo!!!!
OH MY GOD! WHAT IS THAT THING?! WHAT HAPPENED TO MY CUTE LITTLE SIGN OF FRIENDSHIP AND REBELLION?!?!?! We hate to break it to you, but your body is going to change over time. Especially if you get pregnant.
One father-to-be saw the hilarity in what his wife's tattoo had become and shared it on imgur. User A_supertramp said that his wife has come to calling the tattoo "Think before you ink."
Don't worry, it will return back to something close to normal once your bouncing bundle of joy is in the world. And frankly (and admittedly by the user in the post), this wasn't exactly a Picasso that was getting ruined. We think it's a pretty hilarious anecdote that might have you think twice about the placement of your next tattoo.
