Big fat knuckles!!

[skatty]

When pregnant my fingers swelled up like sausages so I took my rings off and put a replacement wedding ring on. Nearly six weeks after the birth I finally got round to changing over again and none of my rings will go over my knuckles

My fingers are not swollen anymore so why have my knuckles grown? Has anyone ever herad of this???

I can get some of my rings on now just the middle finger i cant get some of them on but thats been 9 months since ive had him i havent lost all my baby weight as yet, but when u gain weight so do your fingers, once all the baby fat has gone the should fit as normal. XkelX

you have just described my fingers! i thought i was going crazy! no-one believes me that my knuckles have grown... I still can't get my rings over them 14 weeks on... in fact my fingers are 2 sizes bigger but i think it's just getting the ring over my knuckle... i'm getting mine made igger - fed up waiting for them to go down. Have your feet grown too? I was a size 5 (maybe a 6 if the shoe was narrow) now i struggle to squeeze a sz 6 on.

Hi Hayley, isn't it frustrating?? I am still a size 3-4 in my trainers and boots but all my strappy high heels are in the loft still, I do hope they still fit! My feet were wide anyway! I about 100 pairs of shoes, no savings just shoes ) I will be heartbroken if they don't fit
