I would count on it. If you already have the tattoo, there isn't much you can really do about it now. But if you are just considering a new tattoo, I would suggest waiting until you are finished having babies.
I had my belly button pierced before I became a mommy. When I found out I was pregnant, I removed my ring to avoid tearing...the scar tissue from my piercing stretched HORRIBLY (and I only gained 30 pounds and lost it in the first 12 weeks after delivery!) To this day my belly button scar is elongated and huge! If I had it to do over again, I would do pregnancies first, piercings/tattoos second :)

I don't have a tattoo on my stomach so I can't say for sure. But the amount of stretchmarks on my somach, if I had a tattoo, I'm sure it would look horrid. I would presume it would almost look like a cut and paste picture. But then again you may be lucky and not get any stretch marks anyway.

My hip tattoo almost looked the same after pregnancy. The top part is a little offset from the bottom part now but that's an easy fix. Wait and see what it looks like. Maybe you can just get it touched up a little bit to make it look nice again.

Depends on whether or not you get stretch marks I suppose and if the tattoo is situated in them. I don't have tatts on my tummy but I do have a lot of stretch marks from my first child. If I had have had a tatt on there...it would have been totally ruined I think. I might get one eventually to cover the stretchies though....or just get my back finished off! Good luck.

Well try and see. Blow up a balloon, draw on it, and then pop it! BOOM..now what does it look like? Thats what the tattoo on your stomach will look like.
If you want to have a baby, then don't even worry about your tattoo. A baby is far more precious and cuter than any tattoo!

with the skin streching yes possible, but if she exericsied before her pregnancy during anf after then it wouldnt be long for her belly to get its regular shap back but some fading may happen. The thing is pregnancy and belly tats dont really mix

It certainly will get stretched out like the rest of the skin on your stomach.
I know for my friend who had a Taz tattooed over her hip......Taz doesn't look like Taz anymore.
Good luck!
