Belly Casting

Have you ever thought about making a lasting memory of your preggy belly? Well, maybe you should. Belly casting is a beautiful way to capture your pregnancy and then share it with your child as they grow older.

Many women hold belly casting parties at their baby showers. It’s a great way for you and your friends and family to celebrate this momentous occasion. We recommend buying your belly casting kit from Proud Belly. They’re one of the oldest Internet companies in the business who specialize in making an expectant mom’s pregnancy enjoyable and artful.

By the way, FYI, I wanted to mention that belly casting is nothing new. In fact, belly casts originate from Africa — the motherland. If you don’t believe me, check out African Style by Sharne Algotsson. On page 158, Sharne decorates a hall with an authentic belly cast from Kenya. She writes:

Another unique piece is this body cast from Kenya, worn during ceremonies by men when their wives are pregnant. While the specific ritual meaning is varied, some say it is worn to show support for the women.
