Has anyone had their bellies painted?

I just found this website
I certainly wouldn't have had the courage to do this when I was pregnant - but it looks like these women love it.

OMG Every time I've been pregnant I've had an overwhelming urge to draw on my tummy or get a tattoo or piercing or something, anything to decorate it! I would have LOVED to have done this. Unfortunately my ds2 is now 4 months old and Dp and I have agreed our family is big enough now!

Why couldnt you post this 5 months ago?!

Oh well will console myself with the thought that I couldn't have actually ever afforded £500 to have my tummy painted anyway!

Still kinda about it though!

I had my midwife draw ds onto my belly so I could see where his head, feet etc were. It really helped me to picture his size etc. Still have the photos of it

Just realised £500 is exactly the amount of the sure start maternity grant!! What a great way to spend it

I didn't realise it costs 500 quid! But I guess it's a whole day with posh bath and super safe ingredients! I couldn't have afforded that.
demi should have had summink painted on her tummy here
