there are some in the baby shower gallery. You could check those out and PM the decorators.

I'm pretty new here. What does PM mean?

PM means private message. On the pictures in the gallery and on the post there should be a PM button if you want to send a separate email to a specific poster.

from what i have seen most people use the 1/2 egg pan for the belly and sculpted cupcakes for the breasts, then cover all in fondant - after bc of course...

Does anyone know if the belly & breasts are placed on a separate cake board and then placed on the sheet cake with dowels for support (due to the weight of the cake & fondant) or is it just built right on top of the sheet cake??

When I did my belly cake, I just put the "belly" directly on the cake. No cake boards, no dowels. For the belly, I used half a ball pan about 6" in diameter. Make sure that the base is well chilled before placing the belly on it.

I haven't made a belly cake but if I was I'd use half of the 3d ball pan and the mini balls for the boobs (have used them for that.) on the t-shirt pan. I don't think the ball is heavy enough, even with fondant to need support. I have used it on other cakes and didn't have any support under it.
