Goodbye Wedding & Engagement Rings! :(

34 wks and just had to take off my wedding and engagement rings and put them on a necklace! The swelling isn't TOO bad, but enough to make wearing them uncomfortable :-/...

Anyone else there yet? Did anyone buy temporary rings in a larger ring size? Suggestions on where to buy them cheap but nice looking???

I am still wearing mine comfortably no swelling of the hands and feet for me. Its cold where i live now so it helps. I swelled and couldnt wear mine with my son but i had preeclampsia with him i do not have it now

I'm 33 weeks going on 34 mine still fit at times they're tight but feels okay. Honestly I wouldn't spend money buying another one in 6 to 7 weeks we'll be giving birth and we'll have our fingers back in no time save the money for diapers because we gonna need it.

I'm 35 weeks and haven't seen any swelling, but at times my fingers feel like there might be a bit. It's a matter of time until the swelling starts, but we're so close that I'm not going to bother buying more. The swelling will go down within the week after birth anyway.

Amazon is a good suggestion though!

I am almost 33 weeks now and haven't had to take mine off yet this pregnancy but my other 2 pregnancies I had to remove them at some point. I bought a sterling silver replacement ring on amazon for pretty cheap.

I'm 35wks, some days I can wear them and some not so much lol I figure I only have a few weeks less so I don't plan on getting a temporary one. I have a permanent mark on my finger from it always haha

Same here! Took mine off a week ago (at 32 weeks) so now I have swollen fingers with a ring tan line. Haha.

I stopped wearing mine at 32 weeks as they became bothersome by mid-day. I didn't replace them with temporary ones but yout can find some inexpensive & nice ones on Amazon.
