This was very neat. I am pregnant with my first baby and haven't really considered belly casting but it looks like a sweet idea. My worry is what would I do with the cast over the years. What are your plans for it?
I plan to use it as a craft for my 10 year old daughter and I. In the Spring, I am going to paint, glitter and decorate it and use it for a video for this channel. My daughter loves crafts and I thought she would really enjoy having this as a memory with me. After I am done decorating it..... not sure if I will hang it in the girls room, display it or tuck it away in a box for safe keeping. I haven't thought that far ahead :) I felt for the memory it was worth it... just doing the craft together as a family. If you wanted after you are all done. You could just take a bunch of pictures and video with it for your newborn and discard it. I will try to keep mine though.
It was hard carrying the extra weight at the very end of the pregnancy. I don't feel that way when I am pregnant though till I get to be around 35 weeks pregnant till 40 weeks when it is really big. I would say before 35 weeks... it is manageable and enjoyable.
