Mine did right after I found out I was PG. I can't wear my rings.

Re: My hands are so swollen!!

UGH! I am going to get those braces to wear at night today. I can't stand it anymore.

I wish there was a "home remedy" Chat Icon

I heard pottasium (sp?) and collard greens are supposed to help the swelling. I read that from other posts.

So, you know what I'll be trying today!

I KNOW!! It feel HORRIBLE! I am hoping that I can still get the larger sized one of my bands will fit. I feel so weird without it. It makes me sad Chat Icon

Re: My hands are so swollen!!

I am thinking about getting a very simple band for $50-$100 but I am worried about what size to get. You swell even more in your 3rd trimester. Chat Icon

My right hand is a complete mess! It's swollen and tingly - have to talk to the doctor tonight about it but it's driving me crazy. I can barely feel anything in my fingers and I can't open jars...serious mess. On the positive side - my left hand is perfect and I can still wear my rings. So I hold on to that little bit of joy while my right hand is useless.

I bought a brace at Target for $22 and wear it at night...it's very helpful.

Re: My hands are so swollen!!

I got swollen when I was PG with my son...but I actually think that it was because I was pregnant in the summer. I am a tiny bit swollen now...but my rings still fit this time.

Re: My hands are so swollen!!

I would take off your rings now while you can. I felt really weird taking mine off so i kept them on and well they have been stuck there for a bit!! Now that I have limited my sodium the swelling has gone down and I think I can probably get them off this week but not totally sure!
Just ask yourself this would you rather take them off yourself or have them cut off?? That is my only other option now!
