I am definitely doing this. I love my bump and the fact that LO is due Easter sunday. So an Easter egg belly and a bunny costume for him to come home in.

That is such a cute idea! I wanted to do it with DS (he was due 10-25, born 10-24) but we never did.

Maybe I will do the Easter egg this time around...

Baby will be out by the time easter gets here so I won't be doing it. I could see it being something fun to do with your older children, but since this is my first I wouldn't do it even if he was due a little later.

Nope. Not doing it.

I'll probably do it if I'm still pregnant then. It'd be a fun photo to have in a scrapbook and it's not like I'll be going grocery shopping with an egg belly, so I don't see what's tacky about it.

I see where you're going with this, and I like your energy, but I won't be doing this. :)

I don't really like the looks of naked pregnant bellies, that's just me. Even when I wasn't pregnant, I never exposed my mid-drift even though it's not real flabby. Self-conscious I guess.

BTW Lina, Greek Easter and regular Easter are a week apart! I wonder what Yaya is going to do? She'll be living with us for a while after the baby is born. I know my DH hopes she makes lamb. OPA!!
I don't wear mid-drifts either....who does that nowadays and especially our age! LOL
Yup...its a week apart this year, so April 15th for us. Lamb is a MUST for Easter...w/yummy lemony roasted potatoes....of course koulourakia, tsoureki and red easter eggs!
Lina, I'm coming to your house for Easter--that all sounds delicious!

if we were closer I would so have you and the other mamas over!

No, but I am going to decorate it with some temporary tattoos in the shape of hearts for valentine's day. My husband will be excited when I flash him for the first time in a while!

Hmmm...it isn't my style and hopefully I'll have given birth by then (due date is April 1st)

I did my belly up like a pumpkin in Photoshop for the Halloween I was pregnant with Juliana (born 11.7.07) and sent out an e-card.

I may like this idea better and maybe I can go back and edit a pic of DS to add to his baby book....

I don't really care what my belly would look like but more for the kids (really DD) to have fun and do something special with this new baby on the way

My egg would look severely cracked, with all the stretch marks ;)

IMO it's tacky and gross. So no, I won't be doing it.
