Tattoo infected ? Or irritated

I am 37 weeks pregnant and yesterday my tattoo started getting itchy and I noticed a few bumps. Right now it got ichy and I noticed a few more bumps as you can see it on the elephant ear and tail. I got it done 2 years ago and never had a problem with it. I was wondering how I can treat it and if my pregnancy hormones have anything to do with it ? Any advice I will appreciate it !

It’s more than likely just due to your body growing a baby! My thigh tattoo got a lil itchy sometimes & the spots that were a lil blown out were more noticeable when I was with child for sure, but 22 months pp & every tattoo I’ve got looks just as normal as pre pregnancy (:

It’s to do with your body creating histamines, take an anti allergy and it will settle down
