Too bloated for wedding rings

I’m supper sad because I have had to take off my wedding ring set. Between of the fertility drugs (menopur) and the estrogen I have to take, I have gained a bit (a lot) of weight already and I’m super bloated. I know its shallow and dumb to care so much about my wedding ring but I’m still a newlywed (1st anniversary is next month) and my set is so beautiful! I have had so much pride wearing it and now I feel naked!!! I know I can wear it as a necklace but my finger is sad. I know it will all be worth it once baby is here but it being so new I still don’t “feel” pregnant so it’s hard. Anyone else have to remove your set yet? Any ideas to make me feel better about it?

  • When this happened my last 2 pregnancies I purchased a cheap fake set. Usually made me feel better.

  • I had to take my off. I am allergic to nickel and my wedding band is gold but has some nickel in it and for whatever reason irritates me when I am pregnant. I couldn't wear it at all with my last pregnancy wither and then it went back to normal right after.

  • I love my silicone ring for when my fingers feel too swollen.
  • Same with @sammierose464, used my silicone ring once I couldn’t wear my usual ring. So comfortable and I didn’t feel so “naked”.
  • I haven't worn my wedding ring since the end of my first pregnancy!  :D:'(
