Halloween costumes...have we done this already?

I am a preschool director and I can't figure out what to be this year :)

Thought about getting one of those skeleton w/ baby skeleton shirts but I am not sure yet.

I can't think of a bigger waste of money then buying a maternity Halloween costume.....but regular stuff clearly won't fit over the bump!

Would love to hear what you all have planned this Halloween!

I searched, but didn't find anything as a previous thread.

    I always make my costumes. I was thinking of being a mummy like this but without the bow


    I also have to dress up for work but I'll probably just don cat ears.

    ETA: hmmm the link disappeared. I can't figure it out

  • I thought about getting a pumpkin shirt but figured it would be a waste because I won't wear it more than once. So, I ordered a snowman shirt instead! I'm going to wear a top hat and tie a scarf around my waist for Halloween, and then I can wear the shirt all winter!

    I got mine on etsy but it's similar to this one.

  • I am lucky and own my own customization business so I'm going to be both the skeleton with baby skeleton and pumpkin!

  • You guys can also make your own skeleton ts if you use freezer paper and make a stencil and use fabric paint.

  • I'm thinking about going as Kate Middleton since she's also due in April and all I'll need is a classy dress which I'll rewear for work and other events
  • I always make my own costumes, so I'm hoping I still fit into it in a few weeks (dang bloat). I'm going to be a heartless and murderous Tinman. I've decided I won't be noticeably pregnant enough to do a cool preform costume :(

  • We dress up at the school I'm a counselor at. I made a witch skirt from tule. It's on a ribbon so I can wear it below whatever bump/blump I've got going on. Then adding in a hat and stripped tights, costume complete!

  • I have a fundraiser to do the day before Halloween so I thought I would do the tshirt thing with baby arms coming out if the belly. However I also have a vampire wedding to go to and have no idea what to do for a Prego vamp costume. Anyone have ideas for that?
  • I was thinking of doing the skeleton shirt and I figured I'd wear the shirt around, but I like the mummy to be. Might have to change my mind.
  • I saw a very easy idea online: magic 8 ball.

    I work at a high school so less is more. I'm thinking of wearing black pants and a black long sleeve shirt. Because I'll have a bump, I will tape a number eight to my belly.

    Simple.
  • "skeleton w/ baby skeleton shirts" is what I was going to do! :)

  • I work for a heavy construction equipment manufacturer so I have lots of gear. I am going to be a construction worker. Hard hat, vest, work gloves, tool belt and a shirt underneath that says "construction zone" on my belly. :)

    My costume last year was very elaborate (Daenerys Targaryen) so this year I really wanted something simple.  I ordered a t-shirt online that says, "Mummy-to-Be," I'm going to wrap an ace bandage around my head and call it a freaking day.

    @jk3610‌ Do you have a pic?! I would love to see you as the mother of dragons! LOVE GoT

  • My daughter is going to be a shark (she's obsessed) so I'm gonna wear my wetsuit and a mask and snorkel on my head to take her out. It fits fine still.

    I have a slutty Nun costume from a few years ago in my closet that I think would be hilarious now. Not sure work would agree. .....
