This is totally a fun request. I am looking for some good ideas about a costume for me this Halloween. I am 6 months pregnant (with my first!) and have some parties to go to for Halloween. The best I have seen/heard are "Pregnant Nun" and "Bun in the Oven". I bet there are some really fun ideas out there!

I had a friend that was "The Old Lady who swallowed a fly." If you know that song. So she dressed up like an old lady and pinned all the animals to her belly. We thought it was really cute!

I was about 10 months along with my daughter at Halloween. I just wore all black and then made my belly into an "8" ball and carried a pool stick. I actually won a prize at the party we went to because everyone thought it was funny. :-) Very easy and cheap!

A friend of ours went as a skeleton, and her black shirt had her skeleton bones and over her baby bump had baby skeleton bones on it too, so basically she was a pregnant skeleton with her baby... it was quite cute (although describing it sounds terribly morbid).

At 8 months pregnant I was a pregnant cheerleader. You can find cheerleader costumes everywhere. Let your belly hang out and throw in some pig-tails!

Some of the funnest costumes I have seen for pregnant women is when they paint the belly. Here are a few:

Paint the belly to look like a Jack-O-Lantern

Wear referee clothes, have your belly stick out and paint it to look like a basketball.

Paint your belly to look like a fish bowl

Be a man with a beer gut.

That is all I can think of. Good luck and have fun!

Very cute ideas. I was a pumpkin one year when I was 8 months along. I wore a warm orange sweater with a green collared shirt underneath and a green hat. I put those fake plastic candles (Walgreens) underneath the sweater for the eyes and the nose, and a glow stick for the mouth.

Peanut M & M was my favorite. Plain Top, Black Pants, I tie a belt or scarf around my waist below my belly making it more pronounce and then using masking tap put the letter M on your front and back.

I was 7.5 months pregnant with my second for Halloween one year. I wanted something different - I had the pregnant nun, pregnant bride suggestions. I wasn't really interested because I kinda thought those were obvious choices. My husband suggested a belly dancer! I loved the idea. So, I got some harem pants and cropped top and off I went as a belly dancer - to my church.

My mother-in-law was totally freaked out. She told me to go home and change! I got a lot of double takes and a deacon said to me "You're probably the only person I know who could pull that off - actually, you're the only person I know who would TRY!"

I am 7 mos pregnant and I'm not sure if I will be dressing up this year, but I searched on google for pregnant costume ideas and they had some REALLY fun ones!! You shoudl go check it out. My favorite was a girl who dressed up like a black cat and then she painted a fish bowl with a goldfish in it on her belly, so it looked like the cat had swallowed the fish - too cute!

Another one I saw frequently was dressing up as some sort of sports-player and painting your belly to look like the "ball". those were really cute too :-)

Last year I was... 6 months pregnant around halloween time too. I was "Under Construction." I wore a construction hat, white tank top, jeans, and yellow "do not enter" tape, and a sign that said under construction...

Have fun!

answers from Salt Lake City on

don't forget the regular costume options either- most work with a preggo belly ;) just be aware that the pregnant nun can be offensive to some- One year my husband was Nacho Libre and I was supposed to be the female counterpart in the movie (while I was pregnant) and I apparently offended some of the sweet ladies that came into our hair salon. go figure- I wasn't even meaning to be a prenant nun- just a nun period. just a heads up.
You can have fun with your belly- like you could put a ripped and bloodied t-shirt on and say your baby's an alien coming out or something ha ha.

When I was pregnant, I went as a bag of jelly beans - large, clear trash bag, cut arm and leg holes and filled it with lots of little colored balloons and tied a "ribbon" around my neck. It was fun!

Well, it totally depends on if you are going for fun, or pretty. A regencey (pride and prejudice) dress would be fun (at least to me) as well as pretty, and would have room for your tag along. I dont know if you have a costume rental place where you are, but most have this type of dress to rent. Good luck, and have fun!

I was 8 months pregnant and very round one Halloween. I wore all black, cut out a circle around my belly and painted it into a jack-o-lantern and used spirit gum to glue a real stem onto the top. It looked awesome! Be sure you use non-toxic cadmium free paint.
Good luck.
