Can I change the body on a reborn baby doll?

I have just bought a reborn baby, she has a soft body, but I would like to change it for a more realistic body, is this possible for someone like me who has never done any reborning?
many thanks Nichola

Changing the Body
by: Lisa

Yes you can change a body if it is not sewn on to the limbs. You would then have to make sure you have the right size body and limb size (1/4, 3/4, Full). Most of the bodies now come with cable ties already inserted. You'll need to carefully cut off the cable ties or string that is on the doll's body now. Remove the filling, add the filling to the new body and then attach the new body by tightening the cable ties around the groove on the vinyl parts.

Hope this helps!
