Who is still wearing their jewelry? - Page 2

[Da WIC Lady]

Mine stopped fitting months ago... Even my promise ring doesn't fit too well and that was bought big. I just gave up on wearing them all finally and will put them back on after the baby is born. To me it's the idea behind them, not the rings themselves that count, and so long as I have that in mind all the time, the rings don't have to be there.

By 32 weeks with DS I had my rings off. My wedding band and engagement ring were around my neck until a few weeks after DS was born...

So far *knock on wood* I have been able to keep them on comfortably... But I am only at 34 weeks as of today, so things can still change!

i was leaving all rings off except my wedding band, as a precaution, but i haven't had much swelling in my hands (except when I'm walking for long periods of time, or at the beach). now i've got my engagement ring and another ring on my right hand, and still feel okay.

i guess all my swelling is in my legs, which is a little easier to hide! i bought some great leggings yesterday!

Mine all fit the same as they did pre-pregnancy, which is kind of unfortunate. I was looking forward to rocking a ridiculously huge cubic zirconia for the last few months, and it looks like that won't be necessary.

Ha ha ha! I saw some gigantic rings at a department store a few weeks ago and thought, I would have loved this when I was 9 years old!

I don't swell much at all but I've taken off my rings as of this week. I'm not sure if it's swelling or just weight gain, but they were getting snug.

Mine have been off for several months now. I took them off the beginning of the second trimester. They were snug, but I could get them off/on. Now there is no way I can get them on at all. They are sizes 4 1/2. I bought a cheapo wedding band to wear until delivery size 7, and I swelled out of that, too. So now I wear the cheapo one on a chain around my neck. My fingers/hands swelled like that with my first pregnancy, too. My feet aren't swollen at all. I miss my rings!!!
