When did you stop wearing your wedding ring?

LSUBride26 · April 2011

My fingers are pretty swollen and I'm pretty close to the point of having to take my rings off. I don't remember being swollen this early when I was pregnant with my dd...

soontobe05 · April 2011

With DD I was only 4mths along when I had to take them off, I'm still wearing them at almost 32wks this time around.

mriansmith · April 2011

Took mine off around 34-35 weeks

biblionerd · April 2011

What do you mean "this early"? I really don't consider any of 3rd tri that early. Mine were off in 1st tri. It seemed like as soon as I got pg my hands swelled and stayed that way.

justme04 · April 2011

I stopped wearing my rings a couple of months ago...and not because they were getting stuck I just didn't want to get to the point where they did get stuck.

I wore them up until my son's delivery at 34 weeks and at that point I was so swollen and bloated from Pre-E and HELLP that the doctor almost had to cut them off before my emergency c-section.

JennDave+1 · April 2011

Surprisingly I am still able to wear them. With DS #1 I think it was a couple of weeks before I had him that I had to stop wearing them.

JaqiDec04 · April 2011

33 weeks, I usually don't wear them day-to-day, but I put them on yesterday when I went out to lunch, and had a difficult time getting them off. So no more rings for me...

klv · April 2011

Still wearing them! I take them off at night sometimes though if my hands are feeling poofy

Kstives88 · April 2011

I took mine off around 7 1/2 months. I just couldn't stand not being able to bend my fingers properly anymore. Certain days were better than others though with swelling, so I still wore them maybe 1-2 days a week until 8 1/2 months along.

LSUBride26 · April 2011

I'm 28 weeks, so just barely in the 3rd trimester...it seems like I was closer to 35 weeks with my daughter.

MrsD1 · April 2011

I haven't. I have had absolutely no swelling. I fully expected to have to stop wearing them at some point but apparently that's not the case.

IU_baby · April 2011

I'm still wearing mine. Occasionally they're tight at the end of the day, but for the most part, I'm okay wearing them. Based on my bump pics from last time, I stopped wearing it between 33 and 35w with DS.

croberts22 · April 2011

Took off my engagement ring and another I always wear yesterday. I've still got my wedding band on, it still slides on and off okay.

KhloesMom · April 2011

My wedding band still fits with plenty of room. It's my e-ring that's tighter and has been banished to the safe for the next few weeks.

ChattyCathy81 · April 2011

32 weeks is when I called it quits with the rings.

weddingcaketaster · April 2011

i was lucky and was able to wear mine up until last week (35 weeks!)

kacelle · April 2011

I took mine off at 30 weeks, just in case.

crunchyNMmama · April 2011

I haven't had to take mine off...I am hoping to wear them through delivery (homebirth, so I can)...if she ever decides to arrive

laurakaz13 · April 2011

I haven't had to. I have zero swelling so far. Let's hope it stays that way!

jennahorner · April 2011

I had to take my engagement ring off aroung 6 months. I started taking it off at night when I went to bed, but now I cannot wear it at all. It is even a little snug on my pinky

schmoodle · April 2011

I've never had to in any pregnancy (first only went to 23 weeks, but went full term with my second). 28 weeks now and no swelling at all.

saminohio1977 · April 2011

38 1/2 weeks (last Friday). I can still wear both rings but they are uncomfortable and I'm afraid that they will get stuck so I just took them off.

virginiagirl11 · April 2011

I'm still wearing mine. I have been fortunate with minimal swelling during this pg.

jesstellina · April 2011

My rings have been getting tight for a couple weeks, and I was starting to get nervous every time I struggled to get them off. Monday (@ 28 weeks) DH and I found a cute, cheap replacement in a bigger size, so I've been wearing that ever since. It's 1 1/2 sizes bigger than my wedding ring!!

melgrady · April 2011

I stopped wearing them months ago just to be safe. I tried to wear my ring last month and it was definitely tight by the end of the day, so I decided to leave my finger naked for now.

alyson686 · April 2011

I'm still wearing mine at 35+ weeks. I do take them off before bed sometimes though, if I think I'm going to swell at night.

MidwestTexan · April 2011

I'm wearing my engagement and wedding rings right now...and not because they're stuck...they still easily slide on/off.

My swelling tends to pool around my cankles.

heysupnatalie · April 2011

i am still wearing mine but i take it off at night just because i dont want to wake up and not be able to take them off the next day. my hands swell at night but after i shower and get ready for work they are back to normal so i'm still wearing them.

ilovejud · April 2011

still wearing mine.... but i am so careful about salt intake this time around... with DD I had to take my rings off before i even started my 2nd trimester!

mrambo3 · April 2011

I had to stop wearing my e-ring and wedding band together at 36 weeks. I can still wear my wedding band during the day but it's definitely tight. I only wear it when I'm out.

BecauseICan · April 2011

I'm still wearing mine. I never had to take them off w/ DD, and I don't think I'm going to have to this time, either. I seem to get pretty lucky in the swelling dept, except in my face--that, I swear, looks like I sucked in a whole balloon full of air, LOL.

MrsBeckaT615 · April 2011

About two days ago.

march2008 · April 2011

So far, I'm still wearing it with no problem.

Ciaram22 · April 2011

I'm still wearing mine. My fingers actually shrank and have recently gone back to their normal size. I never stopped wearing my wedding ring although I did stop wearing my engagement ring as I felt it would go flying across the room.

chatty6176 · April 2011

Still wearing my engagement ring at almost 35 weeks...it's a tad bit bigger than my wedding ring.

JessJ222 · April 2011

Still wearing mine.

Jram85 · April 2011

About a week ago

I wear it on a chain around my neck now.

MommaA117 · April 2011

still wearing it at 32 weeks.

I was sure I'd swell since pre preg even a little salt did it for me, but none so far...

Stellar1 · April 2011

With my DD I never had to take them off. I think I had them on when I went for my induction at 41 weeks. This one I still haven't had to take them off. I never swelled with DD so we will see this one.

jerol · April 2011

33 weeks.

nsturm85 · April 2011

So jealous my OB had me stop wearing mine at the start of my 2nd trimester. I work with my hands all day long. I still wear them on a chain but I miss having them on my finger!
