Rings...

How long did it take you to get your rings back on. I'm 7 weeks pp and have lost a good chunk of my baby weight, but I can't even come close to getting my rings on...like wont even make it over my knuckle. I think with my first I had them on already and I'm wondering if my sausage fingers are going to be my new normal. If so, I want to get my rings resized so I can wear them again because they're pretty and I miss them.

Whatcha think? Resize or wait it out?

Re: Rings...

  • Wait at least 6 months

  • I am back to pp weight and still can't get my rings on. Think it took a few months with ds1 as well.

  • I was wondering this as well.
  • I've had my engagement ring on for the past week. I never had to take off my wedding band, I guess it's slightly bigger. lo was 3 weeks yesterday but I hardly swelled at all throughout my pregnancy. I would hold off on resizing them a while longer. Sorry, I know it sucks not to have them on.

  • Mine went back on at 4 weeks but I haven't worn then since. I kept scratching poor little dude. I'm rocking the single mother look.
  • I wear mine on a chain until they magically fit again.
  • Mine are on but still snug. I'm 6 weeks pp- almost. I don't lose the last 10 lbs till I wean, so I say wait a while.

  • I still can't get mine on but I'm only about 3 weeks pp. I couldn't wear mine for the last month and a half of my pregnancy so I figure I probably won't be able to get them back on till that time frame at least. Even with minimal swelling throughout. I wear mine on a chain also. I hate not at least having them with me, even if I can't wear them on my hand.

  • I'd wait. Mine are too big now and I'm waiting till 7-8 months to have them resized.

  • I can wear my ring, however it would scratch LO so I don't wear it. I've just been wearing my wedding band since it doesn't stick up at all. It's not as pretty without my engagement ring and I do miss it, but I would feel terrible if I left a mark on poor LO. My sister accidentally scratched her LO with her ring when he was a baby and he still has a scar from it.
  • I put mine on about a week PP, but don't know if I really had to take them off. They were tight, but not all the time. Now if I am hot they are tight, but most of the time they are fine. By the way I am no where near pre pregnancy weight. I just must not have gained much in my fingers.

  • I was able to get mine back on 17 days pp but, 90% of my weight was water and swelling.
