This Years Halloween Costume
September 14th, 2008 by Mommie

This year it might be a little harder to find good costumes, as I’m prego.  Last year my husband and I were Cosmo and Wanda from Fairy Odd Parents.  They were cheap enough costumes to make and the kids at the elementary school LOVED us!  This year, with my big belly, the options are more limited…

There are many adult Halloween costumes out there, usually we just focus on the children and leave each others costume until the last minute. This year I have to be proactive, as my belly is only growing!

So here’s some options for the pregnant Halloween lover:
halloween costume
1. We could go as the priest and pregnant nun. It may be in poor taste, I know, but it is kinda funny.
2. I could go as the couch potato man, just wear a dirty t-shirt and let your belly hang out
3. You could paint your belly as a pumpkin
4. You could still go the sexy Halloween costume route and be a “Mother To Be” fairy, or a Fertility goddess.
5. Chia pet
6. Any character with a belly, including Fred Flintstone or Barney Rubble
7. Any animal with a belly, like a black widow or a penguin. I had seen someone be a cow, but honestly, don’t pregnant women feel enough like that when their belly is huge, do they really need people saying all night, “Wow, you’re a really good cow”?

Anything really will work, as you have that built in belly. The one thing to remember is that if you get a store bought costume you’ll have to make sure there will be room or at least stretching room for your expanding belly. That’s why many pregnant women just go the “make my costume” route, as it’s just easier when you have no idea what your belly will look like months in advance.

    You can go as a fried egg. Very easy costume. All white sweat suit and white shoes. Sew or glue on a big circle of yellowish orange felt right over your tummy. Turn your husband into a spatula or a frying pan.

    I’d do the nun and priest costumes, but I’m just like that! When my cousin was pregnant, she dressed as the scarecrow and her hubby was Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz. I don’t think anyone even noticed she was prego!

    I saw a woman one year as a cow! The udder was right on her pregnant belly…she obviously had a great sense of humor :)
    I think the fertility goddess sounds really pretty!

    One of my friends was prego last Halloween and dressed like a nun, and it was hysterical.

    What a beautiful belly you have! I like the goddess idea, or also an Egyptian Queen, pregnant with a new queen or pharaoh!

    My husband is really tall. So the year I was big pregnant at Halloween, I went as a bowling ball and he went as a bowling pin. Great fun!

    Cosmo and Wanda had a baby, so you can use the same costumes. BUT Cosmo was the pregnant one, so you’ll have to SWITCH! Hehe!
    (Or just paint a big jack-o-lantern on your belly)
