Sort of NBR: Wedding Ring

I was wondering if anyone else's wedding ring still doesn't fit? I took mine off about a month before DS was born because they were WAY too tight. I am not about 6 week postpartum and only about 4 pounds heavier then I was pre-pregnancy and they still don't fit. I was wondering, if your ring does fit, when you were able to put it back on.

TIA!

  • yeah. Mine fits. I was able to wear it my whole pregnancy though.

  • Mine didn't start fitting again until after my 6w pp visit.  Of course, I waited about that long to try, as it was getting depressing shortly after LO was born trying to fit them on every morning and failing.

    Don't give up hope - it might just take some more time!

  • I took mine off about 3 weeks before Riley was born. It's been about 7.5 weeks since she was born and I still have about 20 pounds to lose. About 3 days ago I finally got my rings back on...but now I don't think I can get them off! O well, they aren't bothering me so I figure it's fine :)

  • If you had a lot of swelling during pregnancy, it could take time to return to normal. After I had Evelyn it was months before I could put my rings on again (or wear my shoes for that matter). This time it was only a couple of weeks, but I didn't have any swelling.

  • I put mine on about two weeks pp.
  • I was able to keep mine on the whole time but had to take off for about two weeks because of my c-section and all the swelling that went it.

  • With my first, I had mine resized at about 3 months PP because I was tired of not wearing it. I then had it resized back to the original (or maybe even a little bit smaller) at about 1 yr PP. 

    There is hope for next pregnancy though; I have had no problem with my rings not fitting this go around.

  • Mine fit the whole time but I stopped wearing them because they slipped off so easily and I lost one...I have a three ring set.  So they fit now but I've been wearing a different ring for now until I figure out what to do about my missing one.

  • I took mine off around 30 weeks maybe earlier. I'm just about 8 weeks PP and they still don't fit. I had A LOT of swelling so we will see... I may get them re-sized

    I took mine off at about 7 months pregnant, and they haven't come back on yet.  My engagement ring almost fits, but my wedding band is still too tight.  It's an infinity band so getting it resized is out of the question.  It's my motivation to drop the rest of the weight :)
  • I never took mine off--it seems to fit about the same as it always has.

  • I took mine off a few weeks to a month prior to giving birth. I was able to put it back on at about 5 weeks pp. I was about 12 pds shy of my pp weight.

  • Both of mine fit again and have since about 2 weeks pp.  They fit up until 36 weeks or so and then I took them off because I was afraid of them getting stuck.
