3rd Trimester

Sad day...

It seems I have to retire my rings to my jewelry box for the time being.  They are suddenly very tight today.  I had to have my e-ring cut off before and I don't want to go through that again.

Where can I get a doofer ring for $20 or less?  I realized yesterday a friend of mine in chemistry lab could have made me one in her jewelry class but this is the last week fo class and I didn't think to ask.

  • Usually Boscov's or JC Penny would have those cheaper 'fashion' rings... I was thinking of getting something soon. I took mine off this weekend just in case... I don't want to all of a sudden blow up and there is NO way I would want to be cutting my rings off!

  • i haven't worn mine since 34w. ?it was very sad. ?i didn't order one, but QVC has some awesome diamonique rings that are pretty cheap.
  • I got one at walmart when i had to remove my rings last time around. My ring size was never the same, so I had everything brought up a size and I'm hoping I can wear them through delivery with this one.

  • I stopped wearing mine late this summer (my fingers swell a lot if I'm even just a bit hot). I've been wearing a plain, thick silver band that I used to wear on my right hand ring finger so it was a bit bigger. DH gave it to me for our 1 year anniversary. He actually made it himself years ago. I love wearing it and think I might keep wearing it instead of the engagement/wedding band. I like how simple it is.

    I'm sure you could just find a cheapo plain band at Target or a department store though. Especially with all the holiday sales.

  • I haven't worn mine since late September and have just gone without.
  • I just retired mine to the jewelery box last weekend. I was able to wear them much longer this time than when I was pg with ds so I shouldn't be complaining! Just be prepared that you might still be swollen for a few weeks after giving birth. I remember not being able to wear mine for a whole month after ds was born Stick out tongue DH bought me an eternity ring for my right hand so I just put that on my left since it's a size bigger!

  • I finally took off both of mine last week.  I have yet to replace them with a fake one, but I do hate not wearing one at all.  I may have to look for something...
  • My DH and I joke (to ourselves) when we go out to eat that I am his pregnant mistress since he still wears his ring and I haven't yet found a cheap replacement. :)
  • I'm on my third. my orignial wedding ring stopped fitting around 21 weeks, then my second we bought on our babymoon stopped fitting 2 weeks ago. I just bought a really fun fake ring from Kohls for $5. It was 50% off.
