3rd Trimester

Are you still wearing your ring?

I'm wondering when I'm finally going to have to give it up. Non clicky poll, but share if you are and week, or if you're not and what week you had to take it off.

Re: Are you still wearing your ring?

  • Still wearing mine. There are days when they are super tight, but not enough to take them off.
  • Loading the player...
  • I put mine away last week  (28w) and DH bought me a band that is a few sizes bigger. It's nice but I miss my diamonds.
  • ering has been off for weeks. wedding bad just came off 2 weeks ago at 34 weeks.
  • Mine is still good. It is only snug when I'm warm because my fingers always swell when I'm warm, but it's fine to put it on and take it off every morning and night and usually is fine most of the day as long as I stay at a comfortable temperature.
  • 28 weeks and still sporting mine. I take it off nightly just to make sure I don't have problems even though I've really had very little swelling in my hands so far.
  • I had to ditch my engagement ring about a week and a half ago.  Today was the first day I couldn't wear my band.  I've noticed the swelling has gone down since this morning, so I could probably wear it now.  Hoping it was just a rough morning and I'll be able to wear it longer.

  • Still have mine on.  But my rings. were a little loose to begin with.  I'm hoping to wear them to the very end/beginning.
  • I am, I haven't really had any swelling (yet). I am 31 weeks tomorrow.
  • 33 weeks and still wearing mine. Swelling has not been an issue for me...yet. There's still plenty of time.

  • No, I had to take mine off around 35-36 weeks.  I tried to wear it as long as I could, but it started leaving a mark on my finger and was super hard to take off.  I now wear a different ring that DH got me on my ring finger though - it is bigger because I normally wear it on my right hand.  I noticed the other night that even that ring is starting to get a little snug, so I might be ringless soon!
  • Still wearing mine-but they were big to begin with and are snugger now.

    I was mid 2nd tri with DD when I had to take mine off.  I was just barely into my 2nd tri with this one when I had to take them off (and was barely able to).

  • 27 weeks and still wearing without issue. Mine actually tend to be too big when it's cold out and they fall off sometimes when I'm washing my hands, now they fit perfectly so my hands are slightly bigger. Keeping my fingers crossed that I don't outgrow them at all.

  • I haven't been wearing my e-ring since about 32 weeks. I can still wear my wedding band but it's getting a lot tighter and harder to get on/off! I can't wait to wear my e-ring again!!
  • I haven't had any issues with my rings (yet) so I'm still sporting them at 31.5 weeks!

  • Still wearing both. We had one 70 degree humid day that I had to take off my engagement ring for about a month ago, but I haven't had to take them off otherwise.
  • 32 weeks and I still have mine.
  • 32 weeks and still wearing mine.
  • I had to take my e-ring off last pregnancy around 33 weeks.  This time I don't think that either will have to come off - I'm nearly 36 weeks along.
  • I haven't had any swelling (yet) in my hands, so my rings are fine.  My feet are another story!
  • Mine are coming off tonight.  They are tight but not too tight.  I just have these were claustrophobic feeling about them getting stuck, plus they are tight enough to leave a little rash under there.  I will be putting a larger ring on that finger though.  I do not feel comfortable without them.

  • I'm 37 weeks and still wearing mine. If I wear mine until the end... I worry I will forget to take them off before going to the hospital!

  • nope, gave mine up last week. too tight on some days, fine on others, but didnt want to risk not being able to get them off.
  • I had to give mine up months ago.

    I bought a cheapy at Walmart and get wayyyy too many complements on it.

  • 30 weeks and I'm still wearing my jewels. 
  • Mine felt snug about a week or two ago, so I took it off, now I cant comfortably slip it back on... :( ?I was 35 weeks or so. ?It fit perfect one day, and the next, boom. ?No Go.

    I hope it fits again soon after he is born.?

  • somehow my engagement ring doesn't fit, but my wedding band still does. currently my engagement ring is on a necklace around my neck. i just started this about a week ago. pretty soon i think the wedding band will be joining the e-ring on my neck.

  • I stopped wearing mine between 34 and 35 weeks. My SIL was telling me horror stories about how her sister had to get hers cut off twice when she was preg. I have a tension set e-ring, so decided that I'd rather go without than ruin the ring, even though my fingers aren't (or at lease weren't) terribly swollen.
  • Almost 31 weeks and still wearing mine and they haven't got tight as yet
  • i took mine off around week 18 only because it was rubbing my fingers alot since i had actually lost some weight. i've been wearing a different ring DH gave me thats a size bigger and no problems at all with swelling. i wont put my wedding rings back on though until after she's born. i miss them :(

  • I still wear mine, but somedays I have to take them off for a couple hours. Most days I usually just put my weddig band on my middle finger, I just feel better knowing I have it on!
  • Yes, for the time being.
  • I had to switch to a cheap target set around 28 weeks, and one day around 34 weeks looked down and my finger was bulging out and I couldn't feel my ring finger. Once I soaped them off I decided to give up on it completely until after daughter is born...GL!
  • 34 weeks and mine are not even snug. Swelling has not been an issue thus far. 
  • I can only wear my wedding band now.  It started about 10 days ago when my doctor prescribed me Procardia to stop my PTL.  It causes increased swelling.  Boo!

  • I had to take them off at 24 weeks. 
  • Yup- but some days they are tighter than others.

     

  • I needed to take mine off at 28 weeks.  The swelling in my hands was getting too bad and painful I was afriad they would need to be cut off.
  • Yep, I am. I'm 29 weeks
