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.

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

@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.

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.

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!
I've had them back on since about 3 weeks pp. They are snugger than I remember but I won't have them resized.

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!

i got my real rings back on at about a month pp.

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!

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.

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!

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!

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.

Nope...I was getting worried, though, cause my feet no longer had any sign of swelling, yet my ring wasn't fitting, yet. but, today, at 2 weeks pp, I have managed to get my ring back on.

I wore my rings throughout my pregnancy! I didn't have much swelling.

I stopped wearing rings at 32 wks? They were back on at 3 wks pp? Didn't have them resized. I just wore dummy jewelry.
