Strange symptom-anyone else?

I normally post on the Trying to Get Pregnant board but I have a quick,slightly strange question. For the last few days I have started to develop a horrible rash on my ring finger. It is red, angry looking and bumpy. My wedding set is white gold. I googled it and apparently pregnancy can cause a sensitivity to certain metals. This would be my third pregnancy and this has NEVER happened before but about 6 months ago my husband upgraded my wedding set significantly so this is the first pregnancy with this ring. Anyone else having anything like this? It is too soon for me to take a test but I am curious if this could be a sign of things to come. TIA

Can't say that i've ever heard of this being even remotely related to a symptom.

Not to be rude but some women have pregnancy symptoms as early as 2 weeks but very few produce enough HCG to show up in the urine until 4 weeks. As a nurse this was the first I have EVER heard of this symptom as well but I am fully aware of when to test and not to, thanks any way though!

I'm going to go with not a pregnancy symptom.

I have to get my whitegold wedding band rhodium plated every 12 to 18 months due to similar symptoms. It started about 3 or 4 months after our wedding. It's about 30 dollars. Hope this helps.

ETA: words. Damn mobile bumping

Have you changed lotions or gotten into something different (different soap, detergent, etc) that may have got cuaght on your ring and caused a rash? Even sweating a lot and cause a contact rash.

At two weeks they would be ovulation symptoms.
