Itchy tattoos after having baby??
Every since giving birth (6/5/23) all of my tattoos have started to raise and become super itchy??? They’re all various ages old and from different artists. Idk why this would happen but the only thing that’s changed has been the fact that I’ve had a baby. Any ideas or similar experiences?

I would spray dermoplast on it and keep it moisturized with the same lotion I was using for my stretch marks to keep hydrated. I also tried putting my breastmilk on them. Nothing made it go away, but helped with the itch some
I was thinking maybe it was something hormonal! I couldn’t find much online about it. Glad to know I’m not the only one at least!

I had this the last few months of my pregnancy (it's resolved since), and it was sooo itchy. I thought I was having an allergic reaction to the ink after years had gone by. It was worst in the places the artists pushed the ink a little too deep. I think it's a reaction between something and changing hormones
