I was really swollen. Especially right after birth. I was technically pre eclamptic and induced, but I didn’t have high blood pressure but a couple times that day and night. However I had a ton of protein. I also gained a lot of weight. I was 120 to start and almost 180 at birth. I am now about 150 so down 30 pounds in a week! I miss my rings! I had to stop wearing them probably a little over halfway through. They won’t go past that last knuckle. Swelling has gone down tremendously though. My shoes fit and the ring I was wearing kept falling off. I want to wear them again soon but I don’t want to have to pay to get them resized and then they end up being too big later. What is everyone’s experience and what do you all think I should do? So happy for all the new and new again mommies! Feel free to post a pic of your babies and rings here too!
