"And for mothers, it is a beautiful experience as they feel relaxed and more connected with the baby. I too had it when I was expecting and I can relate with the happiness and pleasure the painting on our bellies brings," Alfonso said.

Alfonso who have been a painter for 14 years stated that her first belly client was supposed to be her sister who was expecting triplets in her pregnancy, but she did not feel well and could not do it.

"I have been a body painter for more than 14 years, and always had the curiosity to paint a pregnant woman's belly. I had seen those pictures but no one here understood this art form very well or dared to go for it.

"Then I wanted to paint my sister's belly, who was expecting triplets in her pregnancy, but she did not feel well and could not do it. Later, a friend came to me, and the business kicked off soon after.

"It is great to see women coming to me for the experience. While I recommend a mother enjoys the belly painting most during the sixth and eighth month of pregnancy, there are many women who come for it during the second or third month as a way to announce the good news to their family and friends."
