My ankle tattoo was agony, but I'm still far more scared of childbirth. From what I hear, it's the most painful thing ever.

These days you can have a baby Without Having to Have the Baby. I mean between surrogates and adoption, you can be a momma with having to go through labor.If you want a baby , go for it!

It's good that people don't feel forced to have kids now if they don't want them. I do want them, but the pregnancy and childbirth bit are almost enough to put me right off. I'm terrified.

I think getting a tattoo would be less painful than bearing a child. Labour pains are really very hard to bear and when one reaches at its peak (just few hours before the actual delivery) one sometimes wishes that she should not have gone for 'normal' delivery', instead it (delivery) would have been through a surgical operation.

I thought so too but in the back of my mind I thought I should ask women who have gone through both!

I have not gone through any, but based on my knowledge and experience, what I told you earlier, appear correct.

I don't have a tattoo, but there is no way I could believe that would be anywhere near as painful as childbirth. Men would be too wussy to get them.

Call me a male chauvinist but I think there are a few men if given the chance would give birth before I would!

why would you want a tattoo? It is just that... if you do have a tattoo, you wont be able to donate blood to your needy brothers in case of emergencies.

I don't donate blood now. I want a tattoo to symbolize my love of music and me lefthanded.I want my avatar, the Treble Clef on my left inner wrist.
