Introduction
Unfortunately, expectant mothers have fewer options available when it comes to dressing up for Halloween, particularly at mainstream costume shops. However, there are many costumes that actually work better on pregnant tummies than on average ones. The trick is to find ideas that incorporate a round belly, and flatter your extra curves. The ideas below are great options, and can also inspire you to come up with more of your own! -

How to Make an X-Ray Skeleton Costume
What You Need:- A long-sleeved black shirt
- Black pants (sweat pants or leggings are best)
- White glow-in-the-dark paint
- A paint brush
- Making the Costume:
- To make the costume, start out by painting the skeleton of a baby, in fetal position, in the appropriate are of the black shirt. Then, proceed to paint a full skeleton, representing your own bones, on the rest of the shirt. Paint bones on the pants in the same manner. You can add an embellishment, such as a bow or a baby bonnet, to the baby skeleton to highlight the punchline. http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/2141301/best_5_maternity_halloween_costumes.html?cat=52
