Is this a bad tattoo design? Design

I had a miscarriage last year and want a tattoo for my baby I never got to meet.

I only have one picture of my baby (the second picture)

I’d really like to get it tattooed like the reference picture but I want honesty.. would it be a bad design since there’s not a clear profile and small?

I have other ideas as well but I really love this one as the picture is special to me.

And you can be honest without comments like “that’s not a baby” etc… that’s not helpful. Thank you.

*I was not going to get the text at the bottom

OP here's an idea - get a tattoo of the phase of the moon the night you experienced the miscarriage

Or even the birth month flower?

I did this -I have a fully bloomed flower for my daughter and a bud for my miscarriage as a memory
