Throwback to my very pregnant Halloween last year. Here, I was 8 months pregnant and celebrated Brandon’s first Halloween in the bump by painting on Mike Wasowski 😂💚 In 10 days, Brandon will be celebrating his first Halloween outside the bump. Can you guess what his costume is going to be? 😻😻 #bumpart #8monthspregnant #halloween

#6 - Outerspace

Go for an out of this world maternity costume with this planetary cosplay. Take it up a notch by including the whole family as astronauts, rockets, stars, other planets - the possibilities are endless!

This year’s Halloween costumes! Little man asked to be an astronaut and wanted me to be Saturn (his favorite planet). Given my baby bump it worked out perfectly. Helmet made by mom, jumpsuit and rocket dog costume from @target, Saturn shirt painted by mom, filled out by baby number 2 and a hula hoop for a ring. Check out my highlights to see how I made a yoga mat into an astronaut helmet. . . . . . #babyhalloweencostume #dogcostumes #familycostume #familycostumes #familyhalloweencostumes #dogandbaby #todderhalloween @9gag #matchyhalloween #pregnanthalloween #littleastronaut #astronaut #nasa #target #astronaut costume #pregnanthalloweencostume #pregnancycostume #pregnantcostume #pregnantcostumes #halloweendogcostume #pregnanthalloweencostumes

Sooooo, little one’s first Halloween Costume this year! A gumball in the gumball machine! 😂 really fun costume to make actually, and super cheap! Was so much fun at the local Trunk-or-Treat tonight! Some Bumpdates for anyone interested: Today marks 20wks 👏🏻 Halfway through this thing already 🙌🏻 Last ultrasound was an anatomy scan - everything is intact and working like it should! Little one is proportionate, although in the 26th percentile 😂 I think @dominic_pacheco14 and I have doomed this precious child to be something quite petite 🙈 Kiwi is weighing in at a whopping 10oz this week! 🙌🏻😅 Mom however, has only gained a whopping 2lbs, yes TWO POUNDS in 20wks. Mom is craving French fries and Whoppers 💁🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️ AND GENDER REVEAL IS TOMORROW 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 #happyhalloween #trunkortreat #firstcouplescostume #pregnancycostume #gumballmachine #quarter #onequarterwentin #waitingonthegumballtocomeout
