As the father that actually had to apply this to a pregnant wife, it went much better than I expected. It was pretty straightforward and went on quite well and quickly. I would recommend cutting into smaller strips to make it easier to apply.

While I cannot fully appreciate the beauty and joy of the belly cast my wife is absolutely thrilled and that's all that really matters to me at this point.

fairly easy and beautiful belly cast
i had casted a friend's belly once before. we used plaster from home depot and thin, soft gauze strips. it didn't work all that well and so i thought i'd give an actual belly cast kit a try. first of all, the fact that the plaster was in the strip rolls was so convenient! just had to dip in water and it was ready to go! didn't use the belly cream that came w/ it b/c altho it's not "organic" vaseline works much better. liked that it included a plastic drop cloth and gloves...that was great! and the rolls of gauze were so abundant! i have enough left over to make another cast!

the reason i gave it 4 instead of 5 stars is that i think that the gauze should be a little stiffer. it's stiff when u cut it, but when u dip in water it becomes too limp and there is some work required to try to keep in flat and to keep it from rolling in on itself. i had a friend help me, she dipped the strips and flattened them out and i applied. if she hadn't helped, it would've taken me twice as long. as it was, it took about an hour.

Belly Cast
This is a wonderful keepsake to document your pregnancy. I have a belly cast for each of my children. I encourage all women to do this.
