There are cute options out there:
![]() |
| Only vaguely disturbing |
I found a fun nerdy option:
![]() |
| I would wear this in a heartbeat |
I liked this one, but I would probably give some kid in the neighborhood some serious nightmares:
![]() |
| Sometimes I feel like this baby is actually trying to do this to me |
I was thinking to myself that I feel like something is missing from my choices. Where are my skank costume options? You know how Halloween costumes evolve with age:
![]() |
| The two ends of the spectrum get the most free candy |
Don't worry though, they do have skanky costume options for the gestating crowd:
![]() |
| I'd be a devil in heels too |
Because it's already not obvious enough that you put out when you're waddling around pregnant, you really need a low cut costume to drive the point home.
If you're thinking "But what if I want something ridiculous AND oddly skanky?" don't worry, I found the perfect thing for you:

| The more pregnant you are, the shorter the skirt. |
If you're too cheap to buy a skanky costume, you can make do with a bikini and body paint:
![]() |
| Where is she putting her hand??? |
Don't worry, I'm mocking the "sexy" costumes, but it's not like past Kara hasn't used the holiday as an excuse to show some stomach:
![]() |
| I don't even think "Cha Cha girl" is a real costume |
So far my winning idea is to cut a binder in half and glue it to a maternity tank and write "Property of Mitt Romney" on the binder cover. See, it's funny because I'll actually BE a binder full of women. I greatly amuse myself.
What is your Halloween costume this year?
If you were hugely pregnant for Halloween, what would you dress as?








Love your way to advertise that you are having a girl. I had a serious laughing fit.. and my kids wanted me to explain to them. (I couldn't find appropriate words for the 8 yr old.. so I just didn't)
ReplyDeleteLOVE your idea. Love it. Hope to see photos. :-)
ReplyDeleteQuato.
ReplyDeleteuhhh that little girl in the bee costume looks a lot like Faith!
ReplyDeleteI say you and your husband go as a redneck wedding. You, pregnant in a wedding dress and him dressed in camo and a beer tee shirt with cut off sleeves with someone holding a shotgun to his head!
I think he'd be down for that.
DeleteI don't like dressing up, but had a party to go to last weekend, so I went as Pippi Longstocking. Wire in the braids to make them stick out, jumper, mis-matched knee socks, clunky shoes - done.
ReplyDeleteThe best Halloween costume I ever saw on a hugely pregnant woman was Hester Prynne. The timing never worked for me to try that one.
I love the Hester Prynne idea. I just need a giant scarlet A...
DeleteI was going to get crafty with a costume this year and make myself a little popcorn vendor costume while I wear Lena in a carrier, and have her wear a hat with popcorn stuck to it. But in case you didn't know, I am TERRIBLE at crafts and it would just look even dumber than it sounds.
ReplyDeleteI have a friend who wore men's jeans, a wife beater that of course was too short due to her big ol belly, drew on a beard and tucked hair up into a hat and carried around a beer. It was actually quite awesome.
That popcorn costume is pretty popular, I see it all over Pinterest!
DeleteMy vote is for the soccer ball!! I actually despise dressing up and for some reason don't really enjoy celebrating Halloween but hubs b-day is on that day so I'm usually forced to...
ReplyDeleteI seriously spit tea out at my CPU monitor. I think there is some stuck in my keyboard too. You have to do the binder! The 3rd picture is already giving me nightmare.
ReplyDeleteI was hugely pregnant during Halloween and we just painted my belly like a pumpkin. Turns out the tank I was wearing showed nipple (in the last month of pregnancy none of my bras fit) so I can't show anyone the pictures.
Just add some pixelation to that area and show off the pics :)
Deletewith the first pic (skeleton), you can even show what happened to your (was it floating?) ribs! ;)
ReplyDeletethe bee costume is hysterical. and i remember halloween in college - i was sporty spice and showed off my stomach.
Haha you have to blog a pic of that!
DeleteI'm going as Joan from Mad Men this year. My husband WAS going to be Roger Sterling, but he's having a hell of a time dying his hair grey today. He might have to be Don Draper instead. The jury is still out.
ReplyDeleteI do like the body painted beach ball belly.
The beach ball belly is perfect for the pregnant woman who is always hot....
DeleteThe binder full of women is hilarious, and also a winner because it would cost like $2 and take under a minute. I don't even know what to be for Halloween now, so I can't imagine myself as hugely pregnant. Although this post really makes me feel I haven't investigated the slutty options enough yet.
ReplyDeleteNever ignore your slutty options. I bet there is a slutty Katniss costume out there.
DeleteI was also considering dressing up as a binder, but then I realized I don't know my neighbors well enough to display my sense of humor. I'll be taking all the pictures anyways. You might as well go as something slutty since your belly indicates that you put out.
ReplyDeleteMy neighbors either know me well enough to laugh or probably already think I'm really strange because I'm out running all the time, so I'm good.
DeleteIt's nice to know that just because you're growing another human being, you don't have to miss out on Halloween OR being skanky. Personally I think that some kind of Alien bursting forth would be another great option.
ReplyDeleteThat Alien/Baby costume is going to give me nightmares tonight. Geez, that is super creepy!!
ReplyDeleteWe don't really do Halloween. I don't know...I just have no desire to get all dressed up and get drunk in a packed bar with a bunch strangers. It's the nice part of being married - I can stay at home with cheaper, better wine, wear fuzzy slippers AND get lucky. Win.
Past Kara was SO skanky!
ReplyDeleteI'd wear the Death Star shirt all day everyday if I was pregnant.
I don't bother getting dressed up for Halloween anymore because I never have anywhere to go to wear a costume. So I'm missing out on all the fun maternity ones. I did see that devil one on a costume website and thought it was ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteThe baby-breaking-free-from-belly is one of the more disturbing things I've ever seen - what a fun costume! Wishing you well in the final days before your due date!!
ReplyDeleteOkay, the shirt with the baby limbs is pretty gross:) The beachball looks real, I definitely did not look that good when I was pregnant! I have seen a pregnant lady wear a jack-o-lantern shirt over her belly and I thought that was cute, but maybe too boring?:) Good luck!
ReplyDeleteMy vote is for the first one. Also, I think I was at that party. Phi Kappa Theta?
ReplyDeleteSomeone I know went as a nun while heavily pregnant for Halloween.
