I have 6, my first is a ribbon with 'Carpe Diem' on it on my shoulder blade that I got when I was 18, then I got a Native American feather on my ankle which means "The Warrior has been wounded in battle" to symbolise getting out of an abusive relationship. I've also got the Chinese symbol for Rebel on my arm (and yes I get lots of Chinese people asking me what it means *rolls eyes*), my stepdaughter Mona-Lisa's name on my right boob in a flower/ribbon design, Maya's newborn handprint on my right arm with her name and date of birth and the gremlins names and date of birth on my left arm. I don't regret any of them, they kind of tell the story of my life and I will definitely get more, one for our angel when I am finished the emotional healing process and one for this bub at least.
Willie has 3 really nice tattoos, typical 80's style a cobra, a skull and a panther, but he also has one of his lower arms covered in boob (jail) indian ink tattoos which I hate. He hates and regrets all his tattoos.
Both my brothers have full sleeves, one has his chest done and they both have tatts on their legs. One has a snake winding up his neck. One of my youngest bro's sleeves was on the cover of the Australian Tattoo magazine a few months back, he has Marilyn Monroe, Elvis with a microphone and a heap of other music-inspired stuff (he runs a record label).

I have 5 so far...an off the wall symbol on the left side of my chest (above my boob), a Chinese symbol that means "Live for today' on my left arm (and it actually means that!!!), a rose with a design behind it on my right hip, a heart with a dagger through it on the top of my right foot and a biggish fairy surrounded by fairy dust and carrying a basket of blossoms on my right shoulder (on my back). My favourite is the fairy - it's stunning. I semi regret the one on my foot (got it after breaking up with who I thought was the love of my life but actually wasn't) and the one on my chest which has no meaning and doesn't particularly look good either. I got my first one at age 15 (with parents permission - the one on my chest funnily enough), the next 3 at age 16 (about 3 months apart) and the last one (the fairy) at age 18. I would love to get more, there's a Michaelangelo painting of two cherubs that I would love to get on my lower back, with the word "Angel" above it - kind of as a remembrance for the two angels I have lost. I would love to get more fairies and angels on my back but it comes down to money I'm afraid!!
The one on my foot hurt, but wasn't unbearable, and the one on my hip got a little sensitive when it was straight over the hip bone. My fairy got a little tickly coming round into the soft skin under your arm, if you know what I mean??
I love them! DP has none, and never will get any.

I have 3 so far, a chinese character on my lower spine and hubby has the same one on his arm (was my 21st present from him), I have a wee devil with a flower on my hip which i want to do a cover up over. its ok but doesnt really mean anything to me and i got it just cos i wanted a tattoo and my favourite is stars going down my spine and the kids names are in the biggest stars. it only goes half way down my back at this stage so when i can afford it i will carry it down and around the chinese character.
Hubby has one and wants to get another one so we might go back soon and get them done.

Am getting mine done in April on the day I found out I'd M/c. Is something that popped into my head in the few weeks after that happened. I've always wanted one but never knew anything special enough to be there forever, but now i have.
Going to be on my lower back about the same place as Sheza's one is.... which BTW, sheza you've got me a bit more scared about it now saying how much it hurt. lol.

I don't have any but will be getting my kids names somewhere and also a symbol for DH in my bikini area as I don't like visible tattoos for me for some reason. Which is strange cos DH has sleeves (same tribal sort of design as Rach's), has 'vires et honoros' (strength and honour) on his chest and is getting our boys name over his heart. He also plans to join his sleeves up right across his back at some stage. I'm actually drooling just thinking about how incredibly HOT he will look all finished!  Just dreading the cost as he's already spent 2k on them.
