Last night I woke up around 4 am with swollen fingers due to pregnancy. I take such good care of myself, I drink lots of water, eat healthy, etc. and I thought it wouldn't happen to me, but it did. My fingers swelled up like fat sausages.

I tried everything to get my wedding and engagement rings off. I tried soap, baby oil, vitamin E, everything in the medicine cabinet but they wouldn't budge. I went online and read if I soak my hand in ice water for 10 minutes, the rings would come off. I did this but it was just as painful and they still wouldn't come off. I woke up my husband and asked him where his wire cutters were. He was half asleep but he said they were in his tool box. I got them out and cut my beautiful rings off my fat finger. I felt so much better but my poor rings have seen better days.

I guess I should have read Pregnancy for Dummies. Word to those who are pregnant, don't wait until you are 8 months pregnant to remove your wedding rings.

I found these nifty expandable rings at SuperFitOnline. The rings have a hinged shank with a push button opening to make it easy to slip off over the knuckle or swollen finger. Wow! I should have bought one of these.
