When did your rings fit again?

Escheffler34 · December 2015

I am 11 days pp and dying to wear my rings again but I think they're even tighter now then they were when I was pregnant!

I miss wearing them on my finger. Right now I'm wearing them on a chain around my neck but it's not the same! Is there any hope for them fitting any time soon?!

helloaustin123 · December 2015

I'm 3 weeks PP and they still aren't even close to fitting :-(

SweetTooth126 · December 2015

I am 3 weeks pp and just got them on again the other day. Give yourself some time!!

rachswi · December 2015

2.5 weeks pp and I am just now able to tug them on but they're still so tight. I lost the ability to wear my rings somewhere around the 6 month mark so I figured it would be a while till I got my rings back on. I miss wearing them though!!

nmwheel1 · December 2015

I'm 16 days pp and my rings don't fit yet... Hopefully soon!

grapesoda1111 · December 2015

18 days pp and still don't fit

I'm so anxious to wear them! If they don't fit by Christmas I'm going to get them resized. They are getting better so hopefully I won't have to!

2w PP and they fit over my knuckle now! I had really bad swelling the last two months of my pregnancy (especially in my hands and ankles), so I expected it to take a while to go down. On the plus side, it's been nice to see the scale drop quickly because the swelling is disappearing.

Am I the only person who wore their rings for the whole time with no issue? I haven't had to take my rings off at all...

Edit because I can't seem to type today..

kmd91 · December 2015

I was surprised how quickly mine fit again. Had I not had a standin ring on that was getting loose I probably wouldn't have even tried. But mine were back on less than two weeks PP.

Same here. You're not the only one.

Here too, both my pregnancies I just took them off for delivery so they would not get lost in the hospital.

6.5 weeks post and mine still don't fit.

blackcat3163 · December 2015

I'm still pregnant, 40w2d, and still wearing my rings. Considering taking them off to go to the hospital but other than that, they still fit like they always have.

Pontot31 · December 2015

I never took mine off. Not even for delivery.

lyankowi · December 2015

With my first I never took them off. I lost too much weight they are too big. I never regained all the weight I lost in the first trimester.

Knottie02638953 · December 2015

I took mine off for delivery just in case the floss made me swell then put them back on once we got to the recovery room.

Lolo427 · December 2015

5 weeks on thurs and just put them on yesterday. A little snug, but relatively okay

thefithuntress · December 2015

Day after delivery I got the engagement ring on. Band's gotta wait!

gumby22c · December 2015

I wore them the whole pregnancy and put them back in the day I got discharged from the hospital.

JamieA322 · December 2015

I got mine on in less than two weeks.

chelseaepley · December 2015

3 1/2 weeks pp and I can wear mine for about 2 hours at a time. I just wear them whenever we leave the house.

NovemberSno · December 2015

Haha I actually was just telling my husband over breakfast that I was able to put my rings back on this morning without them being tight. He replied "why your fingers gain weight too?" Lol. But I am 3 weeks pp. Idk if they would've fit earlier because today was the first day I tried bit in happy they fit now.

Elyse1384 · December 2015

I didn't try to put them on 1 week PP (just tried to survive), but I put them on this week without issue at 2 weeks PP.

nycmommy13 · December 2015

I'm 4 weeks PP and just starting to wear them now. Only my wedding ring for now. It's a little bit of a tight fit, but not so tight that I feel they might get stuck.

dramaphile · December 2015

Just tried mine on 1 week pp and they won't go past the knuckle. Guess I'll be ringless a little longer!

Wore mine the whole time too. L&D had a policy of no jewelry so I only took them off when I was admitted. They pumped me full of fluids when I was there because I was super dehydrated during labor, so I swelled a little bit, but I was able to put my rings on about 2 days PP.

mrsgabus · December 2015

I never took mine off but I did have some swelling after birth.

knolliepollie · December 2015

My ring started to get uncomfortable my last two weeks of pregnancy. But since giving birth I feel like my fingers are more swollen then they ever were. I tried them on yesterday and still too tight. But I'm 7 days PP today, so I'll give it some time.

Ceridwen77 · December 2015

I never took mine off until I went into labor. I wasn't sure if my hospital was ok with jewelry so I didn't want to risk having my rings floating around in a pocket or something vs safe at home. In the rush to get to the hospital I didn't take off my earrings though, and they never asked me to, so I guess I could have worn them the whole time.

JStill0603 · December 2015

Anyone who wasn't able to wear them before getting better? I am 12 days PP and reallllllly want to wear them. They fit over my knuckle now but not all the way down to where they should be... I just want to know I have hope of wearing them again!

Shelbyville30 · December 2015

Sounds like they're almost there... I bet they will fit soon!! I tried mine on a few days ago and they fit, a little snug but they're there. I'm 2 weeks 2 days, so I guess somewhere around 2 weeks for me.

Peanut1128 · December 2015

I couldn't get mine back on till 3 weeks PP, my knuckles were too swollen prior.
I took them off around 8 months into my pregnancy due to swelling.

dramaphile · December 2015

Managed to get mine on today, 3.5 weeks pp! They're a bit snug, but not cutting off circulation, so I'm hoping my finger will shrink a bit more in the coming weeks. Have about 7 more lbs to lose to be back at pre-pregnancy weight.

grapesoda1111 · January 2016

Mine finally fit comfortably 7 weeks PP!

SoFlaMommie1128 · January 2016

I didn't expect it, but it's really bothering me that my rings don't fit yet (4 weeks PP.) I can't wait to get back to working out (hoping to get clearance at my 6 week check up) even as exhausted as I am from EBF.

Emilie121011 · January 2016

Just got mine on today. 7 and a couple days pp. so happy they fit again. Was scared I was going to have to get them resized!

aabbaby · January 2016

There is still hope! I was losing mine (hope) and thought my rings would never fit again I was planning on having to resize them, but at 11 weeks PP they finally fit. I don't know why my fingers were so slow to return to normal. I'm EBF so the rest of my weight loss has been fast and easy. So happy to have them back on!

amylea623 · January 2016

My rings fit all through my pregnancy. Now I'm 11 was PP and they fit but are very snug. I gained 50+ lbs w this pregnancy.. Sure that has something to do with it??

SoFlaMommie1128 · February 2016

Reviving this...so how are everyone's rings fitting? I think I'm just going to get mine resized, 11 weeks pp, they are too snug.

I was able to finally wear mine at 11 weeks and they were a tad snug. By 13 weeks, they fit much better. I wouldn't recommend to get them resized yet. Sometimes, it can take up to 6 months for them to fit.
