Regretting my first tattoo! Help!

So I just got my first tattoo about 4 days ago. it's on my wrist and it's a cross with the word faith written next to it. I've wanted this for a very long time, the cross even longer than the faith next to it. I love the cross, but I'm starting to regret the word faith. I can't get it out of my head now and I'm constantly going over it in my mind. "should I never have gotten it?" "should I get it removed?" etc. is this normal during the first few days? will I grow to love it?

As of now I don't plan on getting any more since I'm second guessing myself so much. I'm just saying this is my first and only tattoo.

I don't have any tattoo's but I've had this feeling with piercings. I think you'll grow to love it, it's normal to have that sick to your stomach feeling after doing something big! Plus it sounds like a nice tattoo to me :)

You should eventually love it, it's just those first few days when your a little weasy about it.... But if you end up not liking it , you can always get it removed.

There is a product called Wrecking Balm. The works slowly but my son says it really works.

What part of "Tattoos are permanent" did you not understand before you got it?
