The Punny & Playful Parents-to-Be

If you and your partner share a love for clever wordplay and a good laugh, these pun-tastic costumes are the perfect fit. They use your baby bump as the punchline, guaranteeing smiles and chuckles from everyone you meet. These ideas are often simple to DIY, focusing on creativity over complexity, making them a great choice for busy parents-to-be.
- The Baker & The Bun in the Oven: A true classic for a reason! The pregnant partner can fashion a cardboard box ‘oven’ around their bump with a ‘bun’ peeking out. The other partner completes the duo as a chef or baker, complete with a hat, apron, and a rolling pin. It’s sweet, simple, and instantly recognizable.
- ‘Beer’ Belly & Preggo: A hilarious swap that plays on stereotypical bellies. The non-pregnant partner can stuff a pillow under their shirt to create a ‘beer belly,’ perhaps wearing a t-shirt that says ‘I’m with Preggo.’ The pregnant partner’s shirt can simply say ‘Preggo’ with an arrow pointing to the bump. It’s a low-effort, high-impact costume that’s all about the humor.
- Avocado with a Pit & The Farmer (or Toast): Your bump is the ‘pit’ of the avocado! Cut an avocado shape out of a large piece of cardboard, with a hole for your belly. The partner can dress as a farmer who ‘grew’ the perfect avocado, or for a truly trendy pairing, they can dress as a giant slice of toast. Hello, avocado toast!
- Humpty Dumpty & The King’s Man: Your beautiful, round bump is the perfect shape for the ill-fated egg. A simple white outfit, a red bow tie, and a small hat are all you need. Your partner can dress as one of the ‘king’s men’ (or women) who are there to make sure you don’t have a great fall off any walls.
- Thing 1 & Thing 2 (and The Cat in the Hat): A wonderful Dr. Seuss tribute. The pregnant partner wears a red shirt with a large white circle on the belly labeled ‘Thing 1.’ The other partner can be ‘Thing 2,’ and if you have another child, they can be The Cat in the Hat! It’s a fun way to incorporate the whole family.
Pop Culture Power Couples

From iconic movie characters to beloved cartoons, pop culture provides a treasure trove of inspiration. These costumes allow you to step into the shoes of your favorite characters, with your baby bump playing a key supporting role. They are fantastic conversation starters and a fun way to share your fandoms with the world.
- Winnie the Pooh & Christopher Robin: There’s no belly more famous or lovable than Pooh Bear’s! A simple red crop top, some yellow ears, and a ‘hunny’ pot are all you need to transform your bump into the Hundred Acre Wood’s most famous resident. Your partner can don a yellow polo and blue shorts to become the ever-loyal Christopher Robin.
- Juno & Paulie Bleeker: Pay homage to the ultimate indie pregnancy film. For Juno, it’s all about the striped shirt, hoodie, and skirt over jeans. Don’t forget the giant jug of Sunny-D! Your partner can channel Paulie’s runner aesthetic with a gold and maroon tracksuit and some yellow sweatbands. Tic Tacs are a must-have prop.
- Mike Wazowski & Sulley: Your bump is the perfect one-eyed monster! A green t-shirt that you can paint or glue a giant eye onto makes for an easy Mike Wazowski. Your partner can go all out as the big, furry Sulley, creating a monstrously adorable duo from Monsters, Inc.
- Star Wars: BB-8 & Rey/Poe: The force is strong with your little one. Paint your bump to look like the lovable droid BB-8. It’s a creative and visually stunning choice. Your partner can choose their favorite hero from the new trilogy, like Rey or Poe Dameron, to be the droid’s faithful companion.
- The Kool-Aid Man & The Brick Wall: Oh yeah! A red outfit with the classic Kool-Aid Man face drawn over the bump is instantly recognizable. The partner can dress as a ‘brick wall’ (a brown shirt with brick patterns drawn on) with a giant hole cut out, perfectly framing the Kool-Aid Man who just burst through.
Classic & Creative Combos

These ideas take timeless concepts and give them a clever pregnancy twist. They are inventive, often beautiful, and showcase a ton of creativity. If you want a costume that feels both familiar and refreshingly new, look no further than these imaginative pairings.
- Gumball Machine & The Quarter-Giver: A vibrant and colorful choice! Glue multi-colored pom-poms all over a white t-shirt on your bump to create the ‘gumball’ section. A red skirt or pants for the base and a small silver ’25¢’ sign complete the machine. Your partner can be the eager customer, holding a giant quarter and ready for a treat.
- A Pearl in an Oyster & The Diver: An elegant and beautiful option. The pregnant partner can dress in white or iridescent fabric, representing the precious pearl. The ‘oyster shell’ can be crafted from two large pieces of cardboard or fabric that you can hold around you. The partner can dress as a deep-sea diver, complete with a snorkel and fins, who has discovered this rare treasure.
- Magic 8-Ball & The Questioner: Will the baby be a boy or a girl? ‘Ask again later.’ Dress in all black and create a white circle on your bump with the number ‘8’. On your back, you can tape a classic answer like ‘Outlook Good’ or ‘Cannot Predict Now.’ Your partner can carry around a giant question mark, ready to ask the all-knowing belly life’s biggest questions.
- A Wrecking Ball & Miley Cyrus: For the bold and daring couple! A black top and pants for the pregnant partner, with the bump painted grey and a ‘chain’ (made of paper or lightweight plastic) attached. The partner can dress as Miley Cyrus from the famous music video, complete with a white tank top and a foam finger. It’s guaranteed to be a hit.
- A Basketball & The Athlete: A slam dunk of a costume! A simple orange t-shirt can be transformed into a basketball with just a black marker. Your partner can dress in their favorite team’s jersey and shorts, ready to protect their most valuable player. This is super comfortable and easy to assemble for a last-minute party.
The Slightly Spooky (But Mostly Cute) Duo

It is Halloween, after all! These costumes embrace the spooky season with a touch of charm and a whole lot of pregnancy-related fun. They are perfect for couples who want to lean into the Halloween theme without being truly scary, keeping it lighthearted and family-friendly.
- Mummy-to-Be & The Archaeologist: A fun play on words. The ‘mummy-to-be’ can wrap themselves (and their bump) in strips of white fabric or even strategically torn white sheets. The partner can be the intrepid archaeologist or explorer who discovered this ancient (and adorable) find, equipped with a fedora and a magnifying glass.
- Skeleton with a Baby Skeleton & The Doctor: This one is a fan favorite. You can buy or DIY a skeleton t-shirt that features a tiny baby skeleton right over the womb. It’s a sweet and slightly spooky way to show off your little one. The partner can dress as a proud doctor or an X-ray technician, holding up a fake ‘X-ray’ of the baby skeleton.
- A Cauldron & The Witch/Warlock: Something’s brewing in there! The pregnant partner can dress in black and decorate their bump to look like a bubbling cauldron. You can even add some green tulle or fabric coming out of the top for a ‘potion’ effect. The partner can be the witch or warlock, stirring the pot and casting a spell for a happy and healthy baby.
- A Pumpkin Patch & The Farmer: Your bump is the prize pumpkin in the patch! An orange shirt decorated to look like a jack-o’-lantern is all you need. Your partner can be the proud farmer, wearing overalls and a straw hat, who has been carefully tending to their special pumpkin all season long.
- An Alien Bursting Out & The Scientist: For fans of sci-fi with a sense of humor. A white t-shirt with a small alien doll peeking out or ‘bursting’ through is a hilarious nod to a classic movie trope. The partner can be a frantic scientist or an astronaut in a lab coat, holding a clipboard and taking notes on this surprising ‘specimen.’
