In honor of my recent miscarriage. A memorial ribbon with little wings on it. It's my first tattoo-very excited to have a little piece of something to keep with me everyday to remember him/her.
Our Novel of TTC:
*Male Factor (low count and low motility), High Prolactin, and Polycystic Ovaries (March 2013)
*Recurrent Miscarriage testing also revealed high anti-phospholipids & single MTHFR mutation. (Feb 2014)
*IVF (07/2013): BFP-Natural Miscarriage @ 5 weeks* Madison Riley *FET #1 (10/2013): BFN *FET #2 (12/2013)- BFP-Missed Miscarriage at 8 weeks Kyle Andrew *Chromosomes and Karotyping tests were both normal.We lost a healthy baby boy *FET #3 (04/2014) was cancelled after finding Chronic Endometritis
*Miraculous BFP July 2014!! (I was taking baby aspirin and Cabergoline to stay regulated while "taking a break from TTC" and waiting to consult with a reproductive immunologist!!!)
Our healthy baby girl was born 03/10/15 thanks to daily Lovenox injections and baby aspirin. There are no words for how grateful I am for our rainbow baby.
Are you planning on cycling again soon? Did you run getting the tattoo by your RE? I'd hate for you to find out you have to wait and redo blood tests etc because of the tattoo. Just a thought.
I love your idea though. Once I'm completely done cycling I'm thinking of getting a turtle with angel wings for my angel babies.

I've been told no tattoos during pregnancy, so I think I'm ok. We're doing a FET once I get my period. my levels just went down to zero this week so I think I have at least 2 weeks before I get my period and can start birth control again

I think its a good idea but i agree with what @hmz819 said. I was thinking of doing the same thing and my RE says no tattoos while cycling or during pregnancy.

Ewww...so glad you put this! I have a friend who has survived breast cancer and reconstructive surgery. I was going to accompany her to get an infertility related tat when she had her nipples done (true story). I did wonder if maybe I shouldn't, but didn't dive too much in to it. I'll def email my RE office! Thanks for the info!
