Are you sporting a baby bump this Halloween? Ashley from Make It and Love It was preggers last year, so she made a costume that highlighted her bump. Using a freezer paper stencil, she made a skeleton costume complete with a bony little fetus! It makes for the cutest skeleton costume I’ve ever seen. She also made a matching costume for her hubby, with a fast food meal in his tummy instead of a baby, which totally made me laugh! [how to make a pregnant skeleton costume]
Project estimate:
- Black sweatsuit, on hand or about $5 and up
- Freezer paper, on hand
- White paint, on hand
Total: Free and up

This is so sweet! What a fun and creative costume idea. It’s so hard to find maternity clothes let alone maternity costumes :)This will definitely help a lot of soon-to-be moms this year. Even the photo of the mom wearing the shirt would be a great gift to family members or for baby showers.

Ah, how sweet! As my 3 yr old grandangel says, skeletons arent scary, we all “got one inside our bodies”. From the mouths of babes! I love it…..sweetness of the most innocent kind!

Hilarious! That’s brilliant.

clearly the first two commenters don’t have a sense of humor. this is absolutely brilliant! i wish i’d had this idea last year! best pregnant costume i’ve ever seen. maybe for baby number 2!

Looks like a pro-life protest. I’m also kind of creeped out that we’re looking at a baby skeleton. Dead babies are just a downer.

This is so sweet!
Everybody has a skeleton, it doesn’t mean you’re dead.
And for all you haters, you must not be mothers.
Brilliant!

Adults have skeletons. Babies/fetuses have (developing) skeletons. This is brillant, not sick. And no more disturbing than Halloween is supposed to be. Kudos.
Valeria
Hahaha! Brilliant! Would it make people less creeped out if she wore a large box to make it look like the screen of an X-ray machine? Same concept!
I love the pink bow on the baby Skeleton!
Brianna
Cute. Finally a Halloween-appropriate maternity costume. Though I live without seeing matching costumes.
Sara
Sweet. I’m thinking when I was pregnant, my baby had bones! So, this is pretty true to the fact. Very sweet!

Where can I get the pattern to do this myself?

It’s called an x-ray! People take a chill pill. This is cute and even if it were creepy, it’s Halloween very appropriate for the occasion.

Omgoodness some people really think too much into things. I seen this and thought HOW CUTE! a human X-RAY =) and people go on about a DEAD BABY????? REALLY?!?!?!?!? Where was your mind to even think about that i highly doubt someone carrying a baby would want to portray their baby as DEAD! This costume is too adorable!
Tara
This is hilarious! Wish I was pregnant so I could make it for myself this year.

I never thought of it as a dead baby skeleton, more like an X-Ray/ultrasound type thing … some of you people are overreacting to this… Its a Halloween costume, jeez!! It’s hard to find a cute/warm maternity costume, so why not? I’m pregnant and I’m so doing this for Halloween :) and I’m making one for my husband but his is gonna have a beer mug instead :D

im not sure why people are saying this is creepy or talking about dead babies hello everyone this is what you baby looks like on a ultrasound alls you see is a skeleton this costume is not made to be a dead baby or anything is just meant to reflect the living baby inside a woman and when you see them in an ultrasound its a skeleton. And last time i checked when an adult gets an x-ray its a skeleton to so why people are jumping to dead babies and what not is just weird to me
