It really depends on two factors, the size of tattoo and precisely where the tattoo is placed on the stomach.
Stretch marks may develop in different areas of the stomach depending on the woman's physique and how much the stomach area increases in size during the pregnancy, among other things.
A small to medium tattoo may not be affected by stretch marks because of where it is located. Stretch marks don't necessarily cover the entire stomach.
However, the bottom line answer to your question is:
Wait until after you have kids.

The best thing I can tell you is what a tattoo artist told me, he said you have to think about your stomach like a helium inflated balloon, when the balloon is deflated you know how it gets the stretched out look to it, he said thats what happens to most women after the baby is born.

let me put it this way i have 3 tattoos. i would recommend getting them somewhere where they can be hidden and yes one of my friends has a tattoo around her belly button and one on her stomach and she has 2 kids its not pretty at all. they do stretch out. FYI make sure you give it alot of thought I'm getting a tattoo removed and its $100 a session for 2 letters it costed me $60 to get the tattoo and already has costed me $800 to get it removed and I'm still not done.

I don't have one there personally, but I have seen some very ugly, stretched out ones on women who have had babies. It's not a pretty sight. I would get it somewhere else if you can.

well i know a mother who had have babies and it looks really weird with all her tattoos. so my advice whould be wait until having kids then you can lose all the stretch marks and then get the tatoo...good luck

It's not pretty! I would wait until after you have kids and have lost most of your baby weight. Here's a slideshow that might help you:

dont get it on your stomach, or wait till after you had kids.
I like tattoos on ankles and lower backs.
good luck
