Swollen fingers in the 3rd Tri??

Hi, mamas!

Quick question about swollen fingers.  I started to notice yesterday that my fingers are swollen, so I had a hard time getting my wedding ring out.  It's swollen again today and I am not sure if it will go away eventually or get worse to the point where I cannot get it off at all...

Have you had this issue?  Do you recommend taking my ring off from my finger for a while?  I always take off my ring when I come home, but I am not liking the idea of not wearing it all the time :(        

 TIA!

    I had to stop wearing mine at about 36 weeks. I think it is a common situation. Some women put theirs on a chain around their necks in the meantime.

    Very normal to take off the ring. I would leave it off now so it doesn't get stuck! I used another ring to replace my wedding ring until 3 weeks pp when I could get it back on.

    Totally normal! Mine were super swollen and I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to get them off at some point so I was proactive and just stopped wearing them at around 36ish weeks.

    As everyone else said, normal.  I was so swollen with DD I looked like another person and it only got WORSE for me after her delivery.  Yuck.  But you're getting close :)

    Had to take mine off at 32w. I wore them around my neck. My hands were at times so swollen I couldn't close my hand. This was unusually first thing in the morning on the side facing down in the bed.
