When could you wear your rings again?

Mrsosh · October 2008

How many days/weeks/months was it before you could wear your wedding rings again? (Provided you had to take them off due to swelling.)

Thanks!

8 days

I could wear them again 4 weeks pp. I swelled during pregnancy and couldn't wear them but nothing like the swelling after birth! Yikes!!

Shit I wish I could find mine, we moved and I have no idea what box they are in. My swelling went down with in a couple of weeks and I had lost all of the baby weight by my 6 week appt but I'm still not sure I would have been able to wear them then.

I took mine off around 25 weeks and haven't been able to get them on yet Sad

I can usually get them over the knuckle but they're too tight to wear comfortably. When this has been posted before it seems the average is between 2 and 3 months. I don't want to wait any longer!

About a week.

saraheg77 · October 2008

just got mine over my knuckle yesterday... but it was too tight to begin with. I'm going to get it sized ASAP cause I really miss it!!

I was able to start wearing my wedding band last week, but my engagement ring is still too tight.?

CrystalDaun · October 2008

I could wear my band up until two weeks before I delivered. I wore my band again about 3 days after I delivered and just three weeks ago I got all my rings on (I have an upper & lower band to my ring).

One week post partum.

kremerks · October 2008

I took mine off 2 weeks prior to delivery, good ole summer heat. I was able to put them back on 2-3 weeks after delivery.

beckyandtim · October 2008

at two weeks i forced it to go on for dd's pictures. I wasn't able to take if off for a couple weeks after that. Bad, I know. Just within the past week or so am I able to take it off and put it on without it feeling tight.

hudsaunt1 · October 2008

It was 2-3 weeks....and I had alot of swelling.

Lisichka · October 2008

I just managed to put mine on today and am very very excited about tht!

chrisnj0614 · October 2008

A week.

JollyGreenGoat · October 2008

Not yet

I'm afraid I'll have to get them resized.

coleyinsb · October 2008

2 weeks PP.

cj842 · October 2008

Not for about 3 months.

inateapot · October 2008

Can't wear mine yet either - I am thinking about getting it sized, but will wait a few months, I think. My sister said it took her 3 months before she could wear her rings again.

To give you a rough idea: I put on around 40 pounds during my pregnancy...and am down around 25 of it so far. I had to stop wearing my rings back around 5 mo. pregnant.

ReeseM · October 2008

still waiting......may go get them sized soon cause I miss them so much!

Kaye Weaver · October 2008

I never took mine off. It was getting close though! If I had gone a few more days I probably would have had to take them off.

LCM12379 · October 2008

I'm still waiting : ( (I am 8 weeks pp). My worst pregnancy symptom was swelling, and it got even worse with all of the fluids they pumped into me after my CS, so I had it pretty bad. I've tried a few times and can't get them over my knuckle. I'm also still about 17 lbs away from my pre-preg weight, so I'm hoping once I get most of that off, I'll be able to put them back on. I miss them!!!

JessJones3645 · October 2008

Couple of weeks for me.

Jerseybelle · October 2008

I couldn't wear them 1 month before, and it took almost 5 weeks to be able to squeeze them on again. I'm wearing wedding band now, but can't wear engagement ring yet.

raya · October 2008

I just got them back on today, 2.5 weeks pp.

Amrice78 · October 2008

3 months and I had already lost all of my weight and didn't have any visible swelling by this point - sometimes it just takes awhile for your body to readjust.

KelBelle22 · October 2008

Mine still don't fit! So depressing!

Ankea97 · October 2008

Evan is one week today. ?I can get both my e-ring and wedding band on but can't wear them together yet- they are stacked too high on my finger. ?I was so excited to get them on again!

mjcleve · October 2008

Never had to quit to wearing them, but wanted to say that your belly is adorable!
