Yep, clicked over at 2am this morning. What a pain in the arse that thing is with little one's. You just cannot explain to a toddler that even though its daylight outside, it is bedtime.

Bec,

Its basically a pregnancy version of a plaster cast like you would for a broken leg. The idea of it is to give you a 3D reminder of what you looked like pregnant. Many people have theirs painted, done with mosaic, dressed up with material, frame it, hang it. My plan is to have it painted and framed when we can afford it a bit more. It was expensive but I am so glad that I did it. I thought about it while pregnant with Alexander but didn't bother. They use medical grade, non toxic plaster of paris and use the same procedure to plaster up your belly. Old undies on, naked torso and belly and on goes the plaster. When it sets they cut your old knickers off, you do a couple of breaths to loosen that cast and voila! The unadorned version of this cast is still lovely as it is a stark white and smooth version of boobs and belly.

Kerrie Anne,

That is so awesome. When I was in school for painting, I actually did a whole series on the pregnant figure. I think it is so beautiful.

 

[becvan]

Ohh, that sounds so wonderful Kerri!! It was what I imagined, LOL. It's been years since I was pregnant (I can't have anymore) and somedays miss my belly even now. You will always have your belly!! I think that is so great!

i took advantage of feeling positive and went food shopping alone. I didn't panic and was surprisingly relaxed.
