Why Have a Belly Cast Made?

Belly Casting is a wonderful art form celebrating the amazing transformation of a woman's body during pregnancy. It is usually done two to three weeks before a woman's due date, but can also be used to capture the changes during pregnancy as well. Just as some choose to "bronze" their baby's first shoes, this casting captures a moment in time, unlike any other!

A photo captures your body's changes two dimensionally, but a belly cast adds the dramatic third dimension of depth. Although this is a little known way to capture your pregnant body's dimensions, it is also an incredibly wonderful art form. Even if you are uncertain about doing this kind of birth art, do it anyway. As time goes by, and your love for your baby grows, this memento will mean even more to you.
