A pregnancy belly cast, sometimes called a belly mask or belly mold, is a plaster cast made of an expecting mom's beautiful pregnant form. Pregnancy is a very special, yet fleeting, time in a woman's life and memories quickly fade. Photos only capture a flat 2-dimensional image, but a pregnancy belly cast captures the exciting transformation a mom undergoes during pregnancy in a full 3 dimensions!
A pregnancy belly cast enables a mom to forever remember how she looked during her pregnancy and the special nine months she shared with her growing baby. As one mom aptly put it, "It is a really cool way of capturing your pregnant body. You can show your child later that this is what mom looked like when you were inside!"
A belly cast is usually made 4-6 weeks before a mom's due date, but you could also make multiple belly casts to capture the miraculous changes in mom's body throughout her pregnancy. Many couples enjoy making a belly cast together, providing dad with a unique bonding experience with both mom and baby. Others throw belly casting parties and invite their friends to help make or decorate their belly cast.

Premium Quality Plaster Casting Material
We provide five rolls of four-inch wide by five-yard long premium-quality, extra-creamy casting material in our kit (25 square feet of material and enough for even the largest of expecting moms). To visualize just what 25 square feet of material looks like, it is equivalent to a five foot by five foot sheet of material.
The casting material we chose contains a fine cotton gauze and generous amounts of gypsum. When applied to mom's skin, it is creamy and able to capture all the fine details of a mom's expecting form. The combination of the fine gauze and generous amounts of gysum allows the caster to get an incredibly smooth finish during the casting itself. We chose quick setting material to minimize the amount of time mom needs to sit and wait for her cast to dry.
We tested both medical-grade casting material and artist's casting material in our testing process. We chose the artist's casting material over the medical-grade casting material because the artist's casting material makes a smoother cast due to the finer cotton gauze and more generous and creamier gypsum contained on the cotton gauze.
The medical-grade casting material uses a coarser gauze and there is not as much gypsum contained on the gauze. It also dries a more off-white color than the artist's casting material.
The casting material is made from 100% natural materials and is non-toxic and safe to use on mom's skin. There is no heat reaction when applied to mom's skin unlike bulk plaster of paris that can be purchased in a hobby or home improvement store.
We have received and reviewed all of the safety certifications obtained by the manufacturer regarding its use. The casting material conforms to the health requirements of ASTM-D4236 and requires no additional labeling as mandated by the Labeling of Hazardous Art Materials Act (LHAMA).
All-Natural Belly Rub Lubricant
We’ve done a lot of research and testing on what lubricant to use in our kit to provide the best barrier between mom’s skin and the casting material. We tried it all!
We considered Vaseline®, generic petroleum jelly, unpetroleum jelly and oils. We had used Vaseline in our kits for years as it provided the best barrier between mom’s skin and the casting material and it is a trusted name in providing safe, high-quality skin-care products. Over time, we received requests from customers wanting an all-natural lubricant and we listened! Unable to find a product on the market that provided the same amount of barrier protection to mom’s skin as Vaseline, we had a lubricant especially made just for us: Belly Rub.
Our all-natural Belly Rub lubricant provides an excellent barrier between mom’s skin and the casting material so the belly cast is easy to remove from mom’s skin after it has dried. Plus, our Belly Rub is body and earth-friendly.
ProudBody Belly Rub is made of all-natural ingredients: Beeswax, cocoa butter, olive oil and vitamin E. Belly Rub is easily washed from mom’s skin once her belly cast has been removed or she can allow it absorb into her skin. It is so much easier to remove than messy Vaseline but it provides the same excellent barrier protection!
Plastic Drop cloth
Making a pregnancy belly cast is great fun, but also is messy! We provide a 9 x 12 drop cloth to spread to keep the drips off your floor and to make clean up after the casting very simple.
Carbine Sanding Screen
Medium grit carbine sanding screen is used to lightly sand your dried pregnancy belly cast to make a smoother finishing surface if you desire.
Nitrile Gloves
More expensive than either latex or vinyl gloves, nitrile gloves are made from 100% soft nitrile polymer, eliminating any probability for allergic reaction to the natural rubber proteins found in latex gloves. Nitrile gloves have excellent tensile strength and durability compared to vinyl gloves. They also conform well with excellent elasticity compared to vinyl gloves.
