Well while we are offering constructive criticism this looks, to me, like you had a child that lived for only four years.
Except that no one was criticizing her, constructively or otherwise. Looks like everyone else is sympathetic and hopeful that she could get it fixed. So this was most definitely not helpful. No need to kick someone when they're down.

Don't worry about NQB. The artist asked if it was a memorial tattoo for family members before I explained it, so it's not completely out of left field.

I get both of my kids' birthdays wrong a good half of the time. My daughter was born the 3rd, I think it's the 5th. My son was born the 16th and I think it's the 13th. Like, I have to pause and correct myself every time.
Eta: and this weekend I wished my husband a happy 35th birthday on his 36th birthday.
Aside: it always annoys me that Angelina Jolie's tattoos of her kids birth coordinates don't match. Like, 2 are darker and bigger. She's a bajillionaire. Do better or get it fixed.
We wrote the wrong birth date on DD's photo birth certificate from the hospital (not the official). It's a funny story. It happens. Pretty tattoo, glad it can be fixed. And I am dying over this.

One of my kids was born on April 3rd. I am forever writing 3-4. Everytime I write her birthday down I literally have to count the months out in my head to make sure I get it right.
In my defense I have a crap load of kids. That's too many numbers.

Oh no! I'm glad they can fix it.
I told the pastor the wrong middle name for DS3s baptism last month. I gave him DS2s middle name instead. I didn't realize till we were in the church and something looked off on the program. I was mortified.

My mom celebrated my youngest brother's birthday a day late for 15 years, until he wanted to get his passport and needed his birth certificate. It happens, lol.

Glad you can get it fixed easily!
This is hysterical!
What was the scene when he found out his birth date?
And my son just turned 1 July 24th. I told someone this weekend his birthday was July 25th. Definitely happens!

I usually am very very concerned because one's birthdate is the 25th and the other's is the 26th. YOU'LL NOTICE I HANDLED THAT PERFECTLY.
Then I had originally written 2001 for Cambria. I resized and respaced and recentered those dates 18 times. She even gave me the transfer and told me to check the dates and everything but I DESIGNED THAT SHIT I AM OLYMPIAN GOLD.

I can never remember DD's birthday. Near the end of my pregnancy I picked out a day that I hoped she would be born on, because the date made a cool number pattern and I am weird like that. Now I always think/say/write that date instead of her actual bday.
My one niece's b-day is the day after my great-grandma's (Gram died just a few months after said niece was born).
Everybody in my family always ends up trying to celebrate niece's birthday on great-grandma's birthday. I'm a bazillion % guilty of being party to this... so ... um, she's only 6, so, hopefully she just enjoys having 48 hours worth of birthdays?

This happens to me. My son was due on May 4th and we are huge Star Wars fans so it was awesome to talk about. He was actually born on the 3rd. I almost never ever get it right the first time I go to write down or tell someone his date of birth, and when I do get it down correctly I always stare at it for a minute or two trying to figure out if it's correct or not.
OMG! I'm glad it's an easy fix!!! You'll never live that down in your family--it will be funny someday. I give you credit for being honest that it was your oversight--I think I'd have blamed the tattoo artist LOL :-#

Oh ombligo. I didn't think you could make me love you more.
Clearly the answer here is to tell Kristen you've been wrong about her birthday all these years. And if she asks how you know, you can just show her your arm as proof. Then go buy her an emerald.
At least you spelled their names right? My cousin got his father's name tattooed...and spelled it wrong. I'm sure his dad would have thought it was the best thing ever if he could have seen it.
