If I may totally frank, the staff at Cool Mom Picks cannot entirely understand the appeal of pregnancy belly casts. It sounds cool in theory– sort of–but what do you do with it when you’re done? Hang it over the mantle like a moose head? Invert it and serve punch from it at parties?
But we suppose if there’s one belly cast that seems like a halfway decent idea, it’s the Belly Imprint kit from Belly Vita. Mainly because it’s not just a sculpting kit, it’s an at-home aromatherapy spa treatment.
Your significant other (or a willing friend) massages you with a blend of essential oils reputed to fend off stretch marks and relieve stress, all while you chill out for a half hour or so. As far as I’m concerned, whether you follow the rest of the instructions and actually make the cast or not is moot.
At minimum, you’ll have an a relaxing home massage. At most, you’ll have a memento to wave in front of your ungrateful teen in the years to come, while yelling, See what I did to myself for you! –Liz
