I never had a problem with my first 2, but this time I had to take my wedding band and e-ring off a couple weeks ago.. I'm soo sadChat Icon I NEVER take them off... Weird thing is that I've gained less weight with this pregnancy than with the first two.

With DD, I had to give it up with the wedding band around 36-37 weeks finally, although the e-ring was fine until the end. I felt so self-conscious that people thought I got engaged because I was pregnant...not that there's anything wrong with that!! (Lame Seinfeld reference Chat Icon )

I was very pregnant all summer long then, so that could have contributed. I can't say what will happen now since I'm only 26 weeks and it's the dead of winter.

I am 26 weeks and I had to take mine off a few weeks ago. I got really nervous after a friend of mine told me that she had to have hers cut off and I wear my grandmother's wedding band, so I didn't want to have that happen.

Also, I've only gained 5lbs thus far, so I don't think it really has to do with weight.

I can still wear mine but I usually take them off when I am home. Just more comfy.

So far so good. I'm hoping to keep them throughout, but they have started to get a little snug.

It's strange that you gained less but are having this issue for the first time. Chat Icon

Wore them the whole time, but they were so tight I couldn't get them off until a few weeks after I delivered!

Re: Were you able to wear your rings through you're entire pregnancy?

I just started having trouble a few weeks ago (somewhere around 35/36 weeks) because of pregnancy carpal tunnel. Strangely, though, the cool weather has corrected that and they were fine yesterday. We will see if I ever really need to NOT wear them before baby comes.

I am just about 29 weeks and so far they are still OK. Actually, if anything they feel a little loose--can't figure out why.

Dr. warned me to take them off around week 22. He was right. A few weeks later I started getting swelling in my hands and feet. It's not so much weight gain as water retention.

Re: Were you able to wear your rings through you're entire pregnancy?

I did, but because my skin around them got so dry, and then I developed some weird callousy thing at the knuckle - I'm not sure if it had to do with being pregnant or what - because my rings still fit, but I'm having trouble taking them off to put on lotion - I figured I'd just wear them on a chain... people see the rings and think my fingers got too fat though!!!

I had to take them off when I was about 6 weeks preggo with my 1st! Since then, I have not been able to wear my wedding band, its a complete size too small. Chat Icon My engagement ring still fits because it was always a bit big, but I wear a fakie wedding band now until I get my real one resized, but not until after I am done having kids!

Re: Were you able to wear your rings through you're entire pregnancy?

Well, I have 3 rings, 1 e-ring and 2 wedding bands. After the 3rd mo I had to take the ering and 1 wedding band off. I leave on the 1 wedding band. I can once in a while wear the ering, but not all 3 rings
