8. Fall Pregnancy Announcement

9. Go To The Pumpkin Patch
This is one you don’t want to miss doing. Chances are you will also bring your baby here in a year and you want to see all the cute Halloween and pumpkin inspired photo spots.
You also don’t want to miss carnival food!
10. Outdoors Picnic
This is a great time to have a little shake in your routine and go outside for lunch.
Not only is the sun going to help you, you can also walk along your neighborhood or the park wherever you choose to have your picnic and get some extra movement while pregnant

11. No Need To Shave Legs
Oh yeah I said it, if your belly is larger than you thought and shaving is just a thing of the past, guess what. Leggings, jeans, and covering up are in season. So don’t even stress about not shaving your legs.
If you do need to shave – get your partner to do it, or sit down and try as best you can to shave.
No one is going to judge you for having those extra warm fuzzies.
12. Start Planning Your Family Traditions
Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas they all approach so quick. If you’re baby is due before these Holidays (or even after) start thinking of what type of rituals you’d like to do with your new family member.
For us every Halloween we decorate a pumpkin (since becoming pregnant) we do an elaborate pumpkin carving. Now with our son we let him choose the images we’re putting on the pumpkins.
Something so small like just writing down your traditions that you want to do with your baby makes your pregnancy feel much more real. Here are a few ideas on family traditions you can start to think about with your new baby.
- Choosing baby’s first Halloween costume
- Planning a trip to the pumpkin patch
- Taking family pictures every Thanksgiving
- Deciding what Thanksgiving meal you will try to make as a family
- Dressing in Pj’s every Christmas morning to open gifts
- Having a hand painted ornament each year from your baby
- Making gingerbread houses every Christmas Eve.
So many ideas and so much planning for the future.
13. Carve A Pumpkin For Baby

This little act can make it all seem so real. Having to do something for your baby before they even arrive.
Create a tiny little pumpkin with a cute carving and display it outside your home.
You can even write baby’s name on a pumpkin and display that as well.
14. Resting
Depending where you are in your pregnancy you may want to sleep non-stop or just take countless naps.
Growing a human is no easy feat. It is tiring and sometimes down right exhausting. It’s mother natures way of preparing you for the sleepless nights that are about to come.
Use this time to take extra naps, or just go to sleep earlier if you can.
15. Decaf Pumpkin Spice Latte
Everything is pumpkin spice, I know I know. If you are a little sad that you are missing out becuase of the insane amounts of caffeeine and sugar in these drinks have no fear.
You can still get a decaf pumpkin spice latte at Starbucks or brew your own at home adding less sugar than your friendly neighborhood Starbucks
