I feel like this should be a costume, but it isn't!

Unfortunately, this is an actual maternity outfit that I resorted to wearing today, since it is the only comfortable thing I could find. I'm thinking I look like a pregnant scarecrow or a pregnant farm hand. Hey! Maybe I will do that for Halloween instead of the pregnant zombie I had planned.

I would recommend the pregnant scarecrow, but that just me.

The world could always use more scarecrows.
Congratulations, by the way! When are you due? Do you know if you're having a boy or a girl?

You need straw and a pitchfork and maybe a pumpkin mask...that would look pretty cool
Congrats as well and hope everything goes well and smooth for you and baby!!

My wife is in the same boat. She's due on November 3rd so she's trying to come up with a costume, if she lasts that long. Pregnant scarecrow is definitely unique

I would also go down the pregnant scarecrow route. That sounds like a great idea!
Hope all goes well for you both.

Thanks everybody!
To answer the question, I'm due November 7th and we are having another girl! She's our second. I'm really liking the scarecrow idea! I really like the pumpkin mask idea too.

Hallowed Eve, your condition looks just about perfect for a snowman costume. Curves in all of the right places and what-not.
I went to my niece's Halloween wedding last year. One of my other nieces showed up at the reception as a pregnant nun. A reception which was in a Catholic church by-the-way. Can't believe we didn't get struck by lightning or something.

Now, you need to decide if you want a spooky pumpkin mask or a cute and friendly one...depends on your Halloween demeanor and spirit

Scarecrow vote over here.
As funny as the pumpkin face is, do you really want to deal with that with a baby sitting on your bladder so close to your due date?
Just sayin'.

By Halloween, my demeanor will probably be cranky and fed up with being pregnant, so I'm thinking Spooky would be appropriate.

Andy- I'll just be handing out candy at home, so I won't be too uncomfortable in a mask. I think.
