tribute tattoo for lost child??

Question

WONDERING WHAT TATTOO WOULD BE BEST TO GET AS A TRIBUTE TO MY BABY THAT PAST AWAY AT 2 DAYS OLD???

I would like to thank each of you for taking the time to write something. I truly appreciate it. You all have wonderful ideas. God Bless

Answer 1

If you have a picture of the baby, I would tattoo the exact picture of him/her on yourself along with something to tribute him/her and her name. Something like never forgotten and the name. I am sorry to hear of your loss, and I think this is a great way to remember the good things!

Answer 2

I am so so sorry for your loss. A tattoo is a great idea.
I want to get a tattoo of a butterfly and\or a rainbow or a dove on my hip to represent the babies I lost. With their names tattooed alongside the picture. Or their names in Japenese writing.
Find a symbol or image that means something to you and will represent your precious little baby.
Again I am so sorry for your loss.

Answer 3

I am so sorry for your loss.
Do you have a hospital photo? My friends baby passed at 21 days old - he never came home from the hospital. The father had black and gray tattoo of the baby's newborn hospital photo put on his chest. For a mother, I might think about putting it on your hip - close to where you carried your baby. I think you should consider a phrase - something like "In my arms for a while - In my heart forever."

Answer 4

I think that's a very sweet idea, but I would think it through carefully. Remember, people do ask about tattoos, and unless you want this brought up constantly, I might think of another way to pay tribute. I'm so sorry for your loss, I can't imagine.

Answer 5

I would just get baby's name, and maybe birthdate.
If I did this I would keep it small, and somewhere I would see it, but other would not notice it right away.
Maybe your ankle, or on your wrist under a watch or bracelet.
This baby is a special memory for you, and unless you want everyone you meet asking about the tattoo, I would put it in a secret place. That's just me though.

Answer 6

I am so so sorry for the loss of your baby, an extremely hard thing, but think long and hard because what you love know you might hate next year. Make it as "classic" as possible and simple, like a rose or something that is always in our world and not a trend. There is a song I think that would hugely bless you. http://www.amazon.com/Grateful-People-Watermark/dp/B000EF5N26/ref=pd_bbs_1/002-0738907-2152806?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1181622393&sr=1-1 and listen to Glory Baby it tells about the baby who dies and is in heaven being sung to by Jesus and is waiting til you see your baby agan. so beautiful.
Glory baby you slipped away as fast as we could say baby…baby..
You were growing, what happened dear?
You disappeared on us baby…baby..
Heaven will hold you before we do
Heaven will keep you safe until we’re home with you…
Until we’re home with you…

Miss you everyday
Miss you in every way
But we know there’s a
day when we will hold you
We will hold you
You’ll kiss our tears away
When we’re home to stay
Can’t wait for the day when we will see you
We will see you
But baby let sweet Jesus hold you
‘till mom and dad can hold you…
You’ll just have heaven before we do
You’ll just have heaven before we do

Sweet little babies, it’s hard to
understand it ‘cause we’re hurting
We are hurting
But there is healing
And we know we’re stronger people through the growing
And in knowing-
That all things work together for our good
And God works His purposes just like He said He would…
Just like He said He would…

BRIDGE:
I can’t imagine heaven’s lullabies
and what they must sound like
But I will rest in knowing, heaven is your home
And it’s all you’ll ever know…all you’ll ever know…

Answer 7

anything that means something to you the name and maybe an angel if you believe in that or a fairy or cherub. or something totally symbolic. i just lost a baby (miscarriage at 9 weeks) and i got a purple rose bc we planted a rose tree in memory of the baby. if the baby were to have been born in June that would have been the birth flower. i got the date we lost the baby above the rose it is on my ankle. i know someone who got baby feet for her living children but that would be cute for you as well.

Answer 8

I have a TAT and no I don't regret it at all! If you were to just look at me and was ask If you thought I had or would have one you would prob say no, So Not everyone hate them later in life! Mine is of my Zodiac sign. Why does she want to use Spanish or Italian? What wrong with English? She could use something like "Mommys Angel"

Answer 9

I'm so sorry for your loss.

I would go for something tiny and delicate, like a butterfly or a hummingbird, in pink or blue, depending on if your baby was a boy or girl, and maybe the baby's name underneath.

Answer 10

Maybe a flower or a butterfly, butterflies symbolise freedom.
Or just a love heart, maybe the star sign of what he/she was.
I had a miscarriage, and I got a flower on my foot. I am never going to forget that little person that was supposed to be mine.
