Plaster Paris Bump!

This was one of the most fun things I did during my pregnancy! At about 38 weeks (my bump was nice and big!) I decided to make a plaster of Paris mould of my big bump! I had my sister and some friends over to give a helping hand!
What you need:

• Plaster of Paris (I got it in my local chemist)
• Vaseline
• Cling film
• Towels (it can get messy!) 
• Bowls of water
• Newspaper 

I put newspaper on the floor under the chair. I wore an old bikini top and pair of shorts. I decided to do a mould from my shoulders down to under my bump, some people just do the bump. 

How to do it: 

• Rub Vaseline all over belly and shoulders
• Cover in cling film, it can feel tight if you wrap around your tummy and back
• Next, wet the plaster of Paris and smooth over
• Over lap the layers-no gaps
• Do at least 2 layers 
• Leave to dry/set for about 15 mins.
• Carefully remove and leave to dry

I just left mine as it was but if you like you could paint and decorate it! 

If I'm having a 'fat day' I can just pop on my 'bump' and suddenly I don't feel as fat as I thought I was!! :)
