Belly Art for pregnancy women

Now there's a growing trend among moms-to-be that has them boldly showing
that baby bump in an artistic twist to the tummy!
Carla Tarantino-Marie is making her pregnant belly an art canvas
as a keepsake of her pregnancy.

"I planned this to be my only baby and only pregnancy,
so I wanted it to be extra special in every way," Carla Tarantino-Marie says.
"It's going to be a nice way to make my big round belly to feel
a little more festive and maybe pretty."

Belly painting is a growing trend among expectant women.
The American Pregnancy Association attributes it to the Internet
where one photo can inspire many people.
They think henna tattoos and belly painting can add to the experience.

"These are fun things to make that nine month journey easier and more enjoyable,"
Brad Imler of the American Pregnancy Association says.
