Ring PSA

Alex • Blessed to be mom to our miracle IUGR baby boy! I've never met someone as strong and brave as he is!

Just want to give a PSA to anyone who is engaged, married, or likes to wear rings. I've been married for a year and have worn my rings everyday for no problems. I never take them off, even when washing my hands. I got this today and took them off. My rings are high quality rose gold rings... this is apparently common, known as "wedding ring rash". It can happen from being allergic, especially more common in white gold due to nickel, but the main culprit is the soap that gets trapped under the rings from washing hands frequently. And, well, being pregnant and peeing more often means more hand Washing! So just take them off before washing hands and put them some place safe. Get the rings cleaned every so often. But it's no big deal so don't freak out!
