I never, ever swelled during my pregnancy - not even in my ninth month with a 100 degree heat wave... That being said, once I had my cesarean the stuff that they give you - whether it was the anesthetic or God knows, but whatever it was did make my fingers swell - not crazy but enough that my rings would have been an issue. They made me take everything off anyway but thankfully I had left the rings at home anyway.
So, my concern is that even though you aren't swollen now and may not swell at all like I did - the delivery itself and what they give you could cause it.
It's the IV fluids they pump you with... makes you swell up like crazy.
Ahh that's what it was! I mean, I looked like a manatee and I only gained fifteen pounds with DS - It was all in my legs and arms... I left the hospital in my regular clothes and barely wore maternity clothes before I gave birth. Never swelled, wore high heels in my ninth month -- so if I could swell up and look like the walrus coo-coo-cachoo ANYONE can 
Randomly, about three hours after the surgery/birth it all just went away - It was like thank GOD. Even my son came out swollen! His lips looked like he had them done! LOL!
I remember the next day sitting on the toilet and just peeing for like 10 minutes straight. No joke. It was the longest piss I have ever taken in my life.
I was just peeing out all of those IV fluids, finally!
Yes those IV fluids make you have to constantly pee! The day I went home, my clothes were tight, my shoes were tight all from swelling. The night before DD was born, I had to get the nurses to move the IV to my other arm bc I couldn't even close my hand, that's how swollen it got. It remained that way for days!

OMG!!! I'm so lucky mine was only a few hours although now I do remember peeing for quite some time the first time I went after.

I didn't swell with either of my two pregnancies but since I have an eternity wedding band I put my ring in my safe deposit box at the bank both times at like 33w, my fear was swelling and having to cut my rings off...didnt end up happening either time but I was happy I did it bc I would be very upset if I had to cut off my wedding band.

I normally never take mine off, but they didn't fit the last few weeks of pregnancy so no, didn't wear them during delivery
