Halloween Costume?
Well, Halloween is my all time fav event of the year. I like it, by far,
more than Christmas, even! Unfortunately for me, I think I will be the most knocked up person I know for this Halloween... EDD is still set at October 30th lol So, I am assuming I'll be overly pregnant still for Halloween night - which I do NOT plan on missing!!!!! Anyways, as much as I love Halloween, I do wear the same costume every year - a couple years back, I picked up (what I think is) the most beautiful witch dress. Paid quite a bit for it, and I like it so it's that every year. This year, it's not going to happen. This dress fit me like a glove and I'll more than likely be stuck with a very big, pregnant belly, or, not sure if it's worse, a fairly big gut and a very newborn. So, I am sticking with the pregnant belly idea, and I was looking for some type of costume that I could use. I had one lady email me (after posting on the local freecycle for a suitable costume) and suggest a belly dancer type costume. She said it was fairly easy to make - just use a regular bra and pin or sew some material on it and make a dress of some sort even out of sheer type curtains. I did google for some pictures, and found some good ones with some nice ideas, but... I'm starting to wonder if this would kind of be gross for others to have to see. We have my dad's Halloween party that he throws at his work every year on the Saturday before in the late evening, and in the early evening, we have DS's dance school Halloween party. I don't plan on going out and about in the neighbourhood for Halloween night - I'm hoping I can sit at home and hand out candy and the kids can go out with their dad or possibly my brother. My stomach right now isn't too horrible to look at. I'm not a huge fan of big pregnant bellies, but I've noticed I haven't gotten any new stretch marks (yet, knock on wood!) this time around, so most of the ones I do have are from DSs years and years ago and a few from DD last year. Right now, I don't really have big, yucky, red stretch marks, but I'm still wondering if something like this would be kind of gross, inappropriate or disgusting to others. What do you think? If this seems to be too offensive, I might just opt to be a bunch of grapes - purple balloons pinned to a shirt or something boring like that - but I really like the idea of a belly dancer. For my dad's party, basically anything and everything goes. It's an adult-only event, and people MUST dress up to get through the door, and people come dressed up as everything from Frankenstein and Dracula to a penis (yes, one of my dad's friends had a giant penis costume a couple years back!) It's more the family event for DS's dance school that I'm wondering. It is a family outing that we are ALL going to. Babies, children, adults. Ideas? |

I think it would be a hoot. If you need to, you can use a little makeup on your belly to even out the coloring. Go for it, 100%, and it will be awesome! -- Jamie Earth Angels: Taylor Marlys, 1/3/03 Addison Grace, 9/30/04 Check out the family! -- www.MyFamily.com, User ID: Clarkguest1, Password: Guest Become a member for free - go to Add Member to set up your own User ID and Password |

I think it is a great idea too and I'd definitely do it for the dad's party. I'm not sure I'd do it at a 6yo party though, pregnant or not. I wouldn't have a cow if someone did but I wouldn't think it was a good idea. -- Nikki, mama to Hunter 4/99 Luke 4/01 Brock 4/06 Ben 4/06 |

Halloween Costume?
Seconded - I went as an "oven" for a halloween thing we did at work. I won
funniest costume! I just got a huge box and covered it in white paper, added drawn on knobs and made a little door that opened to reveal my huge belly - "the bun". That might work?

I might have to steal the nun idea. You'd also fill out a pumpkin
costume. |

: What do you think? I have to go back to the times when everyone at our work dressed up for Halloween. The most outstanding costume I ever saw was the 8+ mos pregnant woman who wore a form fittiing tights and leotard. One of the most beautiful creature I have ever seen! :-) Larry |
