Need maternity costume ideas!

Post by skullychick » Wed Jun 13, 2012 7:54 pm

This Halloween I'll be 7 going on 8 months pregnant. I was curious if anyone had any cool unique costume ideas that might incoorperate my pregnancy. Halloween is my favorite and I prefer costume ideas that aren't tired or not original, such as the painting of the belly as a pumpkin, or the whole "bun in the oven" baker schpeal. Any ideas would be welcomed and appreciated, and homemade costumes are doable because Ive still got plenty of time!
Feel free to post any pictures of your own maternity costumes as well :D

Thanks

Is a zombie baby eating it's way out overdone?

Probably lol, however that was one I was considering. We have a "zombie crawl" in my area in which people get all zombiefyed and party, so that might be cool to have a seperate costume for that. For
Halloween tho, maybe something less morbid haha.

Pregnant nun, Buddha, big-bellied redneck immediately come to mind.

I have no idea if this one is tired and overdone, but several years back a friend of mine wore this toga-like costume with the belly cut out and put flowers and a little humming bird in her hair and had vines and leaves running up her arms. She painted her belly to look like the world and told everyone she was Mother Earth.

I've always loved the skeleton with the baby skeleton t shirt also. If I were going to be pregnant on Halloween I'd make myself one. I'm actually due on October 28 this year and praying the baby doesn't camp out til Halloween or later. I doubt I'll be in the mood to wear a costume if I go past 40 weeks!

A thought for you would be to think of normal people you wouldn't expect to see pregnant, just for the element of surprise. Some friends of ours went as a pregnant girl scout and the dad-to-be as the cookie monster. It made you stop and think but it was different and cute IMO.
