My husband wanted me to get it cut off my finger because he was so worried but I refuse! He also lets me wear his sandles around the house but they are too big for me and between our crazy work schedules we haven't had time to go out and find comfortable shoes for me yet. Hoping we get it done this weekend!

I am also 31 weeks today and I can elevate my feet all day and I will stay swollen. My fingers even swell. I tried to take my wedding ring off but it won't budge. My flip flops cut off my circulation. I want a pair of tennis shoes but I'm afraid to stretch them out too much to wear them after the baby. I'm unsure of what to do any more.

I know what you mean. Im 31 weeks today and I am sooooo swollen. Last night I was swollen all the way up to my knee and my flip flops are getting too tight to wear and leave marks on my feet, but yet I sit almost all day. It *****

And drink a TON of water. I mean like 2 gallons a day. I drink about 10 glasses of water and keep my feet elevated every time I sit or lay down..it helps.....if its hot they might swell a little more.
