Anyone had a tattoo to remember your angel baby?

5 weeks ago I found out my baby no longer had a heartbeat. I wasn't that far along and he/she wasn't very big but was amazing to see the little flicker only the week before, to then be told it was no longer. Seeing the heartbeat just made it feel more real and it's something I'll never forget. Booked in to get a tattoo on Saturday to remember my angel baby by 😇

Me! I got 3 birds on my ribcage after the third. Had a 4th added a few weeks ago.

Not for everyone, I know, but for me it was the right way to remember my little ones.

I'm thinking of having my one done on my rib cage too. Want it somewhere personal. Thinking of having the heart beating line, with a heart into the shape of angel wings. ❤️ I've always said when I had children I wanted there names tattooed on me and I never got to meet this one 😞

Sounds lovely shonagh.

I like that mine is somewhere secret. I have told a few close friends about it and obviously DH sees it but that is it.

I have two balloons entwined together. I let off the balloons a few months after my second loss as a sort of 'letting go' process so thought it was fitting

I got a daisy chain with the initial of their name entwined really subtly on my ankle.

I have 2 butterflies with my lost babies initials. Unfortunately I know need to add another to it. My dh has thier initials entwined together.

@kloodie that's lovely.
I've got an angel where I have my children's names for the child I never got to meet.
