How to save the memory of 2 young Babies

Question

So i have some really sad things happen. I was pregnant with like 5 girls at the same time all family. Well 2 of the girls lost there babies. My sister in law lost her daughter when she was 6 weeks old and my cousin lost her son when he was 6 months old. I would love to get a tattoo in memory for each of them. But i don't know what to get i mean they really weren't old enough to have like a favorite thing so i don't really know what to do. I also don't want there names on me simply for the fact i want to be able to look and only i know. Plus i don't know how each of the mothers would like it if i did that. And it has been too soon to ask them how they would feel. I mean it is really hard for them to relate to me at all because our children were so close in age. And it is hard for them to really be around her and not think of their own children That is another reason i don't want there names. Also is there any suggestions for a place to put them. I am getting my daughters footprints on my shoulder. and other than that my body is an empty canvas. I am heavyset though so nothing on the hips or stomache.

Answer 1

Gross find a grief counselor instead of using an innocent baby as an excuse to mutilate your body

Answer 2

I am so sorry to hear about your family's loss. I would recommend getting angels in their memory.

Answer 3

Answer 4

hi alot of people are saying angels etc but have you thouht about getting something that reminds you of them....all kids are different and different things would reind you of them or you see something and go oh....they would of liked that something that is special to you but no one else has to know...teddys or something or maybe something there family likes to do .....eg. a horse if they like horses or a cow if they live in the country pick something that will remind you...

Answer 5

2 doves they can each carry a ribbon with the childs initials or name on it.

Answer 6

If you are doing footprints of your children then I would suggest angel wings for your neice and nephew.  You could have them placed on the other shoulder blade.  I would also like to speak to you privately about the art that I create to help parents that suffer the loss of a child.  You can visit my website at www.lastingmemoriesnursery.com to get a better idea of what it is that I do.  Debbie Jadick

Answer 7

I'm very sorry to hear about your families loss.

I would suggest their foot prints. One of each or both of them with their names under each set.  

Answer 8

i would do two simple but pretty little flowers. not bigger then the nail on your pinkie. i would put them on my left foot. left because that is the side of the heart, and the foot, because then if you are sad, you just look down, and you will know, those two little babies still stick around the family, around you.

Answer 9

I'm sorry to hear that. I lost my 16 1/2 yr last July from cancer and I have portraits of her all on my arms. My cousin did get on her right shoulder (back area)  Angel wings with my daughter Melissa's name on it. So, maybe Angel wings or a bird or their birth stone flower. Hope, this helps.
