What is a funny Halloween costume for a pregnant girl?
I’m looking for something funny… not just a maternity-sized regular costume. We’re throwing a Halloween party at our house this year and I want some hilarious costume ideas…

Painted pregnant bellies are so cool! This one is just the beginning.
@augustlan that link didn’t work. Can you just tell me what you Googled?
The obvious is to wear a pumpkin, maybe with a binkie (pacifier) in it’s mouth.
Sure… “painted pregnant belly”. Search for images. For the record, the one I linked was like a view of the womb: baby, umbilical cord, etc.
Try here for a gallery of these images. That’s where I found the pic I linked, but there are many others out there.
Dang it AL you beat me to it. That was my first thought upon reading the quest.
I am primarily a face painter but have on occasion done other body parts.
Just a little cautionary advice here. If you do find a belly painter near you, you want to question them very closely about the materials used. What you want is non-toxic water base paints but NOT TEMPERA paints or ACRYLICS. The latter two have labels that say non toxic but you want those which are safe for faces. There are only a few brands which will do.
I also saw in some pics they appeared to be Henna designs. You want to be certain that they use natural henna ONLY. Some brands of henna-style painting have been shown to contain lead.
The reason you need to be so persnickety is because of the sheet size of skin area being covered and what can be absorbed thru the skin.
If you decide to go this route
feel free to drop me a PM about the specific brands which they are using. If they tell you that the stuff they use is safe but won’t give you specific brand names that’s not a good sign.
Btw. I thought an aquarium scene might be cool because of the spherical shape and all.
Juno!
Or, if you’re feeling a bit more creative, body paint your belly into an egg, a fruit, a planet, a head, an alien, an octopus, an eyeball, a face, a mouth, a blueberry, a lightbulb, earth, a meteorite, an eight ball, etc.
or, dress like sarah palin.
or cover it in clear plastic, wrap some cloth around it, wear psychic clothes, then fortune tell with your crystall ball.
I agree with @Buttonstc: the aquarium looks nice (from the site that @augustlan gave). Also: things that are rounded (i.e. baseballs…really) look very good since your belly’s already round. If you have a favorite sports team, you could be a fan of one of them…
How about: painting or rigging an ‘oven’ door on your belly and then painting a bun on your belly? So it’d be a ‘bun in the oven’.
I’d love to see some pictures of whatever you do!
Wasn’t there a movie where a Alien popped out of a belly? You could do a shirt with a few buttons undone with an nasty critter popping out.
One year I was dating a pudgy sort of man. I painted a cardboard box to look like a box of laundry detergent, I wore that. Then we took a sheet, printed dirty laundry on the front and he wore that tied around his neck. Since you are pregnant you probably wouldn’t need much stuffing to fill out the bag!
At a Halloween party I went to, a couple came as Juno and Paulie from “Juno”. It was wicked adorable.
an aborted foutus ? that’s what i would go with, then again, i’m not pregnant and we don’t celebrate halloween over here…
Blow up a bunch of colorful balloons and tape them to yourself. Then say that you’re a molecule. A friend of mine did that and it was pretty funny.
foutus? you stay classy.
Dress up like a stove, and have a bit of a piece of bread stuck to your belly. “bun in the oven”
or the kool-aid man. then just walk around screaming “OOOOO YEAH!”
A bowling ball is another funny thing you could paint on your tummy, and then you could wear a bowling shirt (Baby Bowling League?) and bowling shoes to complete the outfit…
Put on a pink ribbon and turn your stomach into a breast? get a “Save the ta-tas” tshirt! :)
I’ve been thinking about this too!
I was thinking of being a Mummy, not to play off the pregnancy though. I don’t know, I’ll have to look around when it gets closer, and see how big I am.
Lowercase letter ‘b’ or ‘d’
A camel. Can she do a back bend?
You could be a kangaroo! Just get a smaller kangaroo-puppet head and attach it to the top of your belly.
I also find the idea of designing your belly into a light bulb to be hilarious.
Go as Santa, but say you sat on someone’s lap.
I love all of these ideas. I wish fluther was around when I was pregnant with my daughter back in 2003. I was 7 months pregnant at Halloween and I couldn’t think of what to dress up as. I wanted to dress as Marge from Fargo but my husband thought that no one would know who I was supposed to be. I think I just wore overalls and went as a farm girl.
@Disc2021 I lurve the kangaroo idea.
Wow thank you everyone for the great ideas!!!!!!!
What do you think of having my husband dressing as an inmate, and I’m the pregnant girlfriend w/ another baby on my hip, too small of clothes, and a (unlit) cigarette?
I am about to go look at all the pictures… and I WILL let you guys know what I do and post pics (you too Casheroo!)
so you’re going as a Yahoo! Answers user?
A banana split. The main part of your body would be the banana and your belly would be the ice cream.
@eponymoushipster Eff you! You stole my “bun in the oven” idea. Hmpf.
So, uh, hmm… I got nothing.
@Allie sorry, i guess my ESP just wasn’t working…or was it? dun dun DUN!
@perplexism
Damn I was thinking the same thing.
A Nun…Great answer…
Crinkle aluminum foil around your middle, add a coat-hanger shaped like a handle.
Jiffy-pop!

A hand coming out of the belly .
