Halloween is the perfect opportunity to get creative, and if you’re expecting, your baby bump adds a whole new level of costume fun! Whether you’re going solo, dressing up with your partner, or planning a family theme, we’ve got some festive and imaginative ideas that will make this Halloween unforgettable.
These costumes let your baby bump shine as the star of the show. Whether you're going for something cute, funny, or a little spooky, here are some fun solo ideas:
Dress in all black and paint or attach an 8-ball sign over your bump. Let people ask questions all night—your belly holds the answers!
Go as everyone's favorite fruit! Your bump serves as the avocado seed, and you can make the costume as simple as a green dress with a brown patch on your belly.
Make or buy an oven-shaped costume with a “bun” over your belly—because you’ve literally got a bun in the oven!
Embrace the season with a winter-themed snow globe costume. Add a clear dome around your belly and fill it with sparkly “snow” to create a magical look.
Turn your bump into a colorful collection of gumballs by attaching pom-poms or colored felt dots to your shirt. Add a red bottom for the machine’s base.
Wear a skeleton outfit, but with a twist: Your skeleton will have a little baby skeleton over your bump
Take your Halloween look to the next level with these fun and clever couples’ costumes that incorporate your bump and your partner:
One of you dresses as a chef, and the other as an oven with a bun inside—it's a cute way to announce your little baker on the way.
You can both go as a perfect match! Dress as two slices of bread, one with peanut butter and the other with jelly, while your bump adds the finishing touch.
Let your baby bump be the sunny-side-up egg while your partner goes as crispy bacon. Breakfast never looked so cute!
You dress up as the busy bee, with your bump as the buzzing belly, while your partner takes on the role of the beekeeper. A sweet and fun way to work together!
Be the iconic Mario, with your baby bump as the Power-Up Mushroom, and your partner can join as Luigi or Princess Peach.
Go intergalactic with one of you as an astronaut and the other as an alien, with your bump adding some extra “otherworldly” fun.
One of you can be a swashbuckling pirate, and the other a treasure chest full of gold—your bump can be the hidden treasure!
Your baby bump can be a bucket of popcorn, while your partner dresses up as the ultimate movie fan with a soda and ticket stubs.
Include the whole family in the Halloween fun with these themed costume ideas that bring everyone together—including your bump:
You can be Princess Leia or Padmé, with your bump as the next Skywalker. Let the rest of the family join as Luke, Darth Vader, or even Baby Yoda!
Go prehistoric with a dinosaur family theme! Your bump can be a little egg, while the rest of the family dresses up as dinosaurs or paleontologists.
Embrace the spooky spirit as a family of mummies! Wrap yourself, your partner, and your kids in comfy strips of gauze or fabric to create a classic mummy look. Your baby bump can be wrapped too, making it the perfect tiny "mummy-in-the-making!"
Choose costumes made of breathable, stretchy materials to keep you and your bump comfortable. Avoid anything too tight or restrictive.
October can be chilly, so layer up or choose a costume that lets you add extra warmth while still showing off your baby bump.
You don’t need to go over-the-top. Sometimes a simple costume, with the right accessories, can make the biggest impact.
Make sure your costume allows for easy movement and balance, and avoid any props or accessories that could be a tripping hazard.
Whether you’re dressing solo, with your partner, or the whole family, Halloween is the perfect time to have fun with your baby bump! These creative and cozy costume ideas will help you celebrate this exciting time with plenty of Halloween spirit.
