Nice find! This is pretty much the exact same method I learned of, it's just not as complex, lol! But great reference to those who are not as creative and/or who just want something quick, cheap, and easy! XD
He uses liquid latex, but you can also use homemade gelatine in this particular case by the method he is using (it's just gelatine melts at a certain temperature, so be careful for that), and silicone and foam latex may require some additional (expensive) steps...
Again, EXCELLENT find!!! ^_^

So THAT'S how they make the prosthetics in Hollywood/on the Syfy competition show Face Off! I never knew exactly how. They explained on Face Off, but didn't show it that well.
That was completely off-topic, but still relative.
Anyway, it was a great find! Unfortunately, I bet a lot of the materials used in the video are pretty expensive (though there are probably alternative, less expensive items that can be used).
When I have the time and money (and can find the materials), I would actually like to try my own hand at this (though the blending of the prosthetic to the color of my skin will be a challenge for me as I am not a cosmetologist nor a makeup special effects artist).

What I'm wondering is where I can find a pregnant mannequin to use as the first mold. That's the one thing I think might be a bit hard to find.

You have two options, 1) either make one yourself...which requires additional (possibly complicated) steps or 2) by searching "pregnant mannequin" on Google and finding a nice pregnant mannequin to use...
