I kept my rings on until the end of June but the last two months I had to take them off. It was so hot and I was really feeling big. I had the biggest fear of them getting stuck so I took them off. I have to say I cried a little! But I was able to get them on again about a month after she we born and when the weather cooled down and the initial pregnancy weight just fell off.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-662676 Sat, 23 Mar 2013 10:59:16 +0000 mole 662676@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wore my rings throughout my pregnancy!

My fingers shrunk like crazy after having a baby.<br /> I never had to take them off during pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-662507 Sat, 23 Mar 2013 08:36:36 +0000 hilsy85 662507@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just stopped wearing my rings around 30 wks. They started fitting again around 6wks pp, but are sometimes tight to get over my knuckle...I'm giving myself til 6 montsh pp to decide if I need to get them resized. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-662501 Sat, 23 Mar 2013 08:32:52 +0000 edelweiss 662501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i have about the same ring size! my fingers did not swell during pregnancy, but my late pregnancy was during the winter.</p> <p>i'm on maternity leave right now and hardly ever wear my rings anymore because i don't want to accidentally scratch LO! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-662486 Sat, 23 Mar 2013 08:24:16 +0000 cheert16 662486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took off my engagement ring at around 25 weeks and just wore my wedding band. At 35 weeks my wedding band started getting too tight to wear (my hands and feet are so swollen) so i got a stand in set (at Macy's!) It was pretty cheap and so far looks great- hopefully i will only have to wear it for a couple more weeks and then I can transition back to my regular set! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-662483 Sat, 23 Mar 2013 08:22:00 +0000 leelee 662483@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I stopped wearing my rings around 20 weeks and starting wearing them again around 4 months pp. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-662464 Sat, 23 Mar 2013 07:36:05 +0000 78h2o 662464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wear a 5.25. It stopped fitting me around 20 weeks and I started wearing stand-ins. Tip - get a halfway decent stand-in. I went through 2-3 that lost "diamonds" or changed colors until I got a sterling silver band. However, maybe it's a good thing I didn't get that band until PP because it probably wouldn't have fit the whole time. PP I was wearing size 7. During pregnancy I'd have to say it was more like an 8. Swell much?! After about 2 mo PP I tried them on and there was no way. I couldn't imagine them fitting again. But low and behold, at 3 mo PP (and within 6-10 lbs of my pre-preg weight), they fit again!!! Woo hoo! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-662462 Sat, 23 Mar 2013 07:22:40 +0000 marieC 662462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They're in my jewelry drawer and I've just been ringless. Occasionally I miss them but not often. It's funny that DH has his on and I don't since most couples I know are more likely to be the opposite. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-652175 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 13:36:51 +0000 Smurfette 652175@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never resized mine. I have two wedding bands with my engagement ring in the middle. Around 33 weeks (I think) I had to go to wearing just one band cause the others just got to tight. But I could wear one band with no issues. I didn't swell up really bad though. One week PP, and I am still just wearing one band. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-652154 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 13:32:52 +0000 heffalump 652154@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just stopped wearing my e-ring and wore my wedding band around my neck on a chain. I didn't want to have to pay to keep getting it resized as my fingers grew and shrunk. I was pregnant in the Florida summer so I knew my fingers would swell up.... and they did. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-652134 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 13:28:05 +0000 MsLipGloss 652134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am not sure how much bigger my fingers were, but I had to stop wearing my rings at 30 weeks (I had some seriously crazy swelling in addition to the summer heat swelling). But now, even though I haven't lost all of the pg weight, I can comfortably wear my rings again . . . as long as I watch my salt! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-652125 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 13:26:10 +0000 BelugaBean 652125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My rings stopped fitting at about 20ish weeks pregnant. I couldn't get them back on at all until around 6-7 months postpartum. Even now if I just showered or washed dishes (or am hot for any reason) they don't fit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-652114 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 13:24:06 +0000 hellobeeboston 652114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i was pregnant in the summer and my fingers got pretty swollen, my e-ring went first, then the band. I got a faker replacement eternity ring to wear in the meantime. and my rings are a size 4.5 - and the replacement was a size 6!</p> <p>i got my real rings back on at about a month pp. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-652103 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 13:20:09 +0000 shopaholic 652103@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never had to stop wearing my E- ring or stacking band - they were slight looser than my wedding band. I just stopped wearing my wedding band and right hand ring a couple weeks before delivery. I wouldn't resize bc you'd probably have to resize again. Barely worn my rings pp since I've barely left the house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-652033 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 12:59:41 +0000 oliviaoblivia 652033@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had to stop wearing my rings at about 20 weeks. I usually wear a six and by the end of my pregnancy my size seven stand in was too snug!<br /> I've had them back on since about 3 weeks pp. They are snugger than I remember but I won't have them resized. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-652027 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 12:58:32 +0000 yoursilverlining 652027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had to take my rings off about midway through my pregnancy. They didn't fit until about 7 months pp. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-652024 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 12:57:55 +0000 Modern Daisy 652024@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmm, okay so far it sounds like I should probably hold off on getting them made smaller. The 3.25 isn't 'waay' too big on me right now, it's just bigger than I prefer. There's a chance the rings will fit through my pregnancy at this size and if I lose all the weight and they're too loose I can have them sized down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-652005 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 12:48:38 +0000 DillonLion 652005@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine had to come off at 20 weeks pregnant. I worse a stand-in after that. </p> <p>I'm 4 months PP nearly, and my rings still don't fit. But I'm not far off. I have a right hand ring that I love that I've been wearing in the interim. My hands aren't that differently sized, so if a right hand ring is fitting on the left hand, my wedding rings aren't too far behind, hopefully! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-651998 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 12:45:51 +0000 rachiecakes 651998@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. tictactoe: same happened to me! I had lost all the weight but my fingers were still bigger. I got my rings resized 6 months postpartum and now they're HUGE. Ugh. </p> <p>Don't do it! I took mine off during pregnancy and either wore a stand-in set or my rings on a chain but afterwards I wish I had been more patient. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-651994 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 12:44:42 +0000 Sugar.Biscuit 651994@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've gained weight and to get mine resized its under 200 to increase 3/4 a size! I think ill just not wear it and lose weight. Dh said he paid for it once he isn't paying for it again lol tight a$$. I wear my grandmothers wedding ring in the mean time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-651954 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 12:28:20 +0000 blackbird 651954@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My regular rings are a 6.5 and I'm wearing a size 7 on my finger currently. It's a right hand ring. I wouldn't want to subject a real gold/diamond ring to temporary resizing for just a few months of wear, only to resize it back down. I made it until my third trimester, then dropped to just my wedding band, and the last 6 weeks have worn a Diamonique ring. So I've only gone up half a size </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-651951 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 12:26:39 +0000 mrs. tictactoe 651951@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My fingers got very swollen and fat and I wasn't able to wear my rings throughout my entire pregnancy, so I wore a cheap replacement. My husband got my e-ring resized when I was about 5 months post partum and now it's way too big!! I wish I would have believed that I could lose all the weight because now I can only wear my wedding band that he didn't resize. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-651939 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 12:22:53 +0000 Foodnerd81 651939@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not sure how bloated my fingers will get, but if my rings get too small, I'm just going to not wear them for a few months, rather than resizing them only to have to resize them again. I may get a cheap stand in for the interim, since I like to be wearing something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-get-rings-resized#post-651934 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 12:18:49 +0000 Modern Daisy 651934@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How big did your fingers get during your pregnancy and did you have to get your rings resized? </p> <p>My ring finger ranges from a 'tight' size 3 to a 3.25. I just ordered a new e-ring setting and wedding band last week in a 3.25 and now I'm wondering if I should have gone smaller. My current ring is a 3.25 and at my most bloated/swollen, it easily slides on and off and it never feels tight. About 90% of the time it slides around/spins loosely on my finger, but never falls off. </p> <p>But of course I'm worried about being pregnant this summer, with 25+ lbs on me in the heat will my fingers get a lot bigger? </p>
