1. Really, no one has a comment.

I at least said at first WTF?!?

2. We talked about that in the big menstruation thread in GD

a week ago. Not that web site in particular but the idea of belly casts.

They are cool though. It is a nice souvenir. Interesting sculpture if you hang it on a museum like wall.

3. I did to avoid threads about female issues.

I can't watch pad commercials on tv.

It is kind of cool, but just looks well strange or different.

4. Here's my question about it. Do you think it would smell

after a while?

I mean a cast once it is removed, reeks. So I was just wondering if a pregnant cast would as well?

Not that you leave it on for that long, but it will still collect skin cells and oils when you put it on.

:shrug:

5. You don't wear it long enough

I shouldn't think for it to smell. But I could be wrong.

and I would think that like any other artwork, you'd shellack it to preserve it.

I did wear a torso cast when I was 14 for about 8 months and yes, after a while it did not smell fresh, but didn't reek. Couldn't wait to get out of it. And yuck the dead skin that sloughed off me in the shower! x(

6. I remember the guck that came off after my wrist cast

was removed. When BabyMidlo broke her arm when she was four, she wanted to keep the danged thing. :scared:

Fortunately, I talked her into disposing of it with a trip to Toys R Us.
