30weeks+ Still wearing rings?

NinjaNic · February 2010

Is anyone out there still wearing their rings? I had to take mine off and not wearing them since week 28... I miss my them! Crying

So? Huge, swollen fingers anyone?

JKB1986 · February 2010

I think mine were gone at 25 weeks....just wearing a plain gold band now.

ktsnshn · February 2010

I am still wearing mine, but have started waking up with swollen fingers in the morning so I don't know how much longer I will be wearing them.

MrsHT · February 2010

I couldnt wear my engagement ring after about 27 weeks, but my wedding band was a little bigger and its a thinner band. So I am sporting that alone. My finger looks so naked and I stare at my engagement ring nightly and say soon enough you will be back on my finger

Mrs. Braxton · February 2010

I still have mine on. I think I'll make it to the end with them! My hand's haven't gotten too bad but I do have gross, swollen, Fred Flinstone feet and I've had to give up all my cute shoes so it all evens out.

Temp9692015347082299 · February 2010

Still wearing mine actually! I'm shocked really. My fingers do swell during the day but they are down in the morning and evening enough to take my rings off.

Baby_Bunny_Hopeful · February 2010

E-ring was off about a week ago... and I was just wearing my wedding bands (I have 2 of them)... until a few days ago- then I was down to ONE band.

Today- none of them fit over my swollen knuckles.

I feel naked!!

I had to go buy a "replacement" ring at Wal-mart this weekend.

bonnin507 · February 2010

I just gave mine up this week. It was pretty tight the past few but I wasn't ready to part w/ it. This week I decided it's not worth the struggle of getting it off.

My shoes weren't fitting about 4 weeks ago so I had to buy new ones in a bigger size. At the time I didn't notice but now I can actually feel that my feet are puffy/swollen when I touch them. Ewww!

Madison789 · February 2010

I don't wear mine often because they generally annoy me. But we're going to talk to a life insurance guy today, so I got kinda spiffed up (I can't call it dressed up since I'm still wearing jeans and tennies - but they're my nice jeans! Smile ) and I put my rings on. They fit just fine.

Sorry you're having to deal with swelling.

I'm having to deal with people saying - "you only have 25 days left! Are you sure you're eating enough? The baby doesn't look very big" (ie The baby looks unhealthy because you've been starving yourself, you terrible person). Thanks a lot.

CoreysGal · February 2010

Still able to wear mine. I have had a couple of instances where it got a little uncomfortable but they were only for short times. I am hoping to make it to the end!

homebird · February 2010

I had to take my engagement ring off around 28 weeks, and I took my wedding band off this morning. They're on a chain around my neck now.

It's funny, my fingers don't look swollen to me. My ankles, on the other hand ... whole different story.

dkfitz07 · February 2010

I am still wearing mine. Most days, they fit like usual. *crosses fingers*

cdc1982 · February 2010

I just had to take mine off over the wkd (31wks). I'm wearing a fake pair now

THIS--so obnoxious! Mine still fit. However, they got reeeeeeeeally loose for a while (like fall off while washing hands loose), and now they fit normally again. Thank god--I was having nightmares of my DH's great-grandmother's diamond flushing down the sink!

2bMrsAnderson · February 2010

i'm still wearing mine. Every couple days i take them off for a min just to make sure i can get them off.

lpstl · February 2010

I am, but not by choice. They won't come off now by normal means. I need to get some windex and take care of that soon.

tropianoc · February 2010

I am still wearing mine, thankfully. I think I might make it!

prego760 · February 2010

My hands are still fitting my rings just fine. I cant wear my rings at night though. My ankles and feet have swollen up at times.

cutie420311 · February 2010

yep, still wearing them

BelhurstBride · February 2010

I'm still wearing mine and there's room for some swelling.

*LrCg* · February 2010

I'm 35 weeks and I still have mine one. I wore them without problems my previous pregancy (which was also during the summer in its hot up here) the entire time so I don't think I'll have issues this time.

Melly Mel · February 2010

I am 35 weeks and still wearing mine. I have no swelling, luckily!

stefani19 · February 2010

I am still wearing my rings!

they havent tightened at all... they usually tighten a bit since its winter and my fingers always swell in the winter but i can still take them off and put them back on without any problems!

i hope this stays, because i love my rings alot!

drgswife · February 2010

I lucked out with the swelling til about 2 wks ago. Now my hands are naked. Oh how I miss them!

KristinKD · February 2010

I haven't had any swelling, so mine still fit fine. Last time I never had to stop wearing them.

VTFutureMrs · February 2010

I am still wearing mine. I haven't had any problems with swollen fingers and I hope that I don't (knock on wood). I don't want to take my rings off!

Neen33 · February 2010

I had to give mine up about 3-4 weeks ago. Sad

SL122 · February 2010

Still wearing mine at 37 weeks. I take them off at night, because the swell a bit when I'm warm and I'm terrified I'll balloon up overnight. As for my ankles, they're usually fine. I credit that to drinking LOADS of water.

ali_bl-nov05 · February 2010

Still wearing them. Again, I'm pretty early on the game.

laumholl · February 2010

Ironically, my engagement ring still fits....but my wedding band doesn't. Sad

....I feel ya girl...;)

blondbomber23 · February 2010

I still wear mine. They don't feel tight at all. I don't think I've had much swelling though, I only notice a little in my ankles after a long day of shopping or my 12 hour shifts at work.

IrishBrideND · February 2010

I am. My fingers are not swollen at all.

StrawberryAlarmClock · February 2010

Still got 'em on but my left middle finger hurts like a mo-fo for some strange reason. Maybe carpal tunnel?

melody921 · February 2010

I wore mine until 39 weeks when suddenly my hands decided it was time to swell. Now, I just have my wedding band on a chain around my neck and I put the engagement ring in the jewelry box until after LO is born.

Gherkina · February 2010

My rings have been stuck for over 2 years because rapid weight gain from medicine to treat my endo. They still turn and move a little, though so I never got them cut off. So far, they've never cut off my circulation, I just have more fat right beyond the ring.

This for me too. I finally stopped wearing my engagement ring around 36 weeks - on a chain around my neck now. The wedding band is much thinner & really tight now but I am managing wearing it. I was going to buy a cheap set to wear by DH thought it wasn't necessary. He understands why I can't wear it but I feel naked without it!

monique1980 · February 2010

Yep still wearing mine!

adamstodrake · February 2010

I'm 35 weeks, and it depends on the day. Most of the time I can still wear them, but once in a while I will swell up pretty badly (especially if I am hot) and then I will put the rings on my pinky finger for a bit. If I have to totally take them off in the next few weeks I will probably go and purchase a cheap ring to wear instead. My finger just feels naked without something on it.

Ciconrad · February 2010

I'm still wearing mine. I think about week 37-38 with DS, I had to stop but I am no where close to needing to remove them yet. I've had about the same amount of weight gain - I am just not swelling at all this time around.
