Swollen Fingers?

By the time I get home at night my fingers are so damn swollen, I can get barely get my rings off. Anyone else having this problem?

Re: Swollen Fingers?

  • not yet, but i did with DD. I couldn't get my rings off at all at one point. I delivered DD will all my rings on. Luckily I didn't have to have them cut off, they let me keep them on.  I try to take my rings off everynight this time around so I know at which point they wont go back on...

    Good idea. I will definitely follow your lead.?

  • Only while I'm sleeping.  I'm one of those people who never take my jewelry off, so it's been strange to take my rings off before bed. 

    I'm not sure if its still like that but at about 6wks, I woke up one morning and my rings were on the verge of cutting my circulation off.  Now, I just take them off just in case.

  • Yah, I am. I think I moved my wedding ring to a chain around my neck around 7-8w. But, my ring size is 4.5 so any swelling is noticeable. It's just more comfy this way, especially with that KY humidity!

    I cant wear mine either and its driving me nuts! DH bought me a white gold band to wear for now until I can get mine back on! 

  • I haven't been able to wear mine since week 6 or so. ?We just went to Target and bought a cheapie sterling silver ring. ?I couldn't justify spending a couple hundred on a new band.
  • I get that sometimes.

    I try and remember to put my hands over my head for a bit a couple of times during the day. Usually I just put them on my head like I am relaxing with them there because otherwise Iook like I am being held up. Holding both your hands up like you are on a roller coaster is better. It relieves the feeling for a while.
