Or has the swelling begun?

I am SS because I am losing my rings :/ Everything is getting bigger although not really swollen, but my fingers. Last week I did a brusque movement to stop DD1 from falling and my wedding ring flew across the living room 😂

Nope, I had to order some cheap set off amazon. I’m sad about it because I love my rings so much and was still getting used to wearing them (just got married in October) 😩

I'm SS. We both haven't worn our rings in years. We were both really fat when we got married and then lost a bunch of weight and haven't bothered getting new rings. I say new because for him his ring was tungsten and unsizeable and mine was just a little fashion ring that I picked just to have something. Eventually we plan on getting new ones (maybe for 12.5? Dutch tradition because it's half way to 25) but for the moment we don't wear anything.

I clicked no, but it depends on the day. But I'm not wearing them now mostly. I have a ring I wear on my right hand that has a small ruby (ds birthstone) and small pearl (my birthstone) tat I'm now wearing on my left because it does feel weird to not wear my rings.

I can’t see the poll, but yes, they’re still on my finger.
With my oldest, I wore them into the hospital when my water broke in July. With my now middle, I had to take them off at about 36ish weeks due to swelling in May. I’m curious to see where she fits in.

They currently still fit as a set. With my son I know I had been wearing a plain band I got on Amazon for a couple months by now. Then I was still wearing it for at least 3 months after. Mid-Atlantic summers are really humid and always make my fingers swell anyhow.
I have a sparkly one in my shopping list on Amazon in case we get to that day this time.

Currently yes but some days i notice they are tighter so let’s see if I can keep them the next 4.5 weeks

Yes, but a couple nights over the last 2 weeks I could barely get them off. I never had any swelling with DD, but like everything else about this pregnancy, it would appear this time is different and I won't be wearing my rings until the end 😕

Yup, still fitting fine. With DD (mid May baby) they fit right up until the last couple weeks. At that point I had to stop wearing them overnight because I’d wake up with them uncomfortably tight, but I could still wear them during the day. I think I wore them to the hospital in fact. My feet and ankles swelled so bad but not so much my hands.

Mine are still on at 34 weeks. I had to take them off at 30ish weeks last time, but I had a lot more swelling then. If I make it to delivery with them still fitting, I’ll definitely take them off before I go into the hospital because I was pumped with fluids last time to regulate contractions and I was super puffy for at least a week after.

SS because my wedding rings don’t but my class ring (purchased earlier at a lower weight) does.
I’m not wearing any of them. I got a “copper” silicone ring from Enso and love it.
I wore all my rings last pregnancy until I was admitted into the hospital. But thanks to the epidural it took a week to get them back on postpartum.

SS
Depends on the time of the day. But because I was tired of feeling like my finger was strangling I ordered a cheap band from Amazon and have been wearing that.

They fit but I rarely wear them. I won’t wear them to work so I’ll only put them on randomly.

SS here. Some days they fit fine and other days I have to pry them off. With DS1 I wore them right up until I was induced at 40w5d. I am doubting that will be the case this time around.

For me, some days are fine, but I have trouble getting it off on others. So I voted no because I'm a little nervous to put it on.

Update from this morning: they're definitely getting uncomfortable and ordering that ring now. We take our rings off when we get home anyhow so I only wear them out of the house. ETA photo of ring I ordered. It was $15 and claims to be sterling silver so it should work.

Yes, but I get a mark on my finger so I don’t wear them unless I’m going out.

I said yes but I'm a bit of a SS. My actual wedding rings started giving me an allergic reaction a few years ago so I've been wearing MH's grandma's which is larger, but it's still fitting fine.

Mine still fit. For now. I don't remember when they stopped fitting with DD, but then they didn't fit for a good 6 months afterwards.

I stopped wearing them early on for some reason and they are too tight now. It’s due to weight gain though, not swelling.

Nope. But I have my God moms wedding ring (she passed away when I was 9). It still fits so I've been wearing that as a replacement. It's starting to get a little tight too though somedays so...guess I may have to take this one off soon.
It's been nice to have a reason to wear the ring of hers. I've held on to it for all these years and have really only worn it on special occasions a few times.

Hmm reading this, I just had a flash back to my emergency c section where I think I remember them telling me I had to take my rings off for the operating theatre. Considering I’m having a RCS, perhaps I should leave them at home? I hate not having them on, I feel naked.

I haven’t worn my rings for about a month now. They were still fitting but it was super uncomfortable so I just stopped wearing them.

34 weeks here. Almost couldn’t get my ring off when I took a shower last week, so I kept them off and put them on my necklace.

Oh man, I haven't been able to wear my ring since I was 23 weeks. I currently wear a band my mom let me borrow and it is starting to get too tight, too. I have all the swelling.

With DD I had to take them off around 28 weeks due to swelling and couldn’t put them back on until almost 12 weeks post partum (my fingers weren’t really swollen, just the knuckles). This time I made it until about 32 weeks... definitely way less swollen this time around but they were starting to feel tight so I swapped them out for a silicon Enso ring instead.

They do, but I'm paranoid about accidentally throwing them away with my gloves or getting gross stuff on them at work so I only wear them when going out.
