Bye Bye Wedding Rings

Almost seems like it happened overnight. At first I thought my rings were feeling tight just because I was hot and sweaty at the time, so I didn't think anything of it. Then, a few hours later when I was cold and they still felt tight that's when I knew my fingers were swelling.

So every time I go to the doctor for a checkup they ask "have you had any swelling?" and this time I'll have to tell them about my fingers. Hopefully my feet don't swell anytime soon because that's gotta be much more miserable than the fingers! Let's hope my blood pressure is still normal. It's never usually high so I think I'll be ok...but definitely don't want preeclampsia!

I kinda feel bad because I can't wear my wedding rings or the new anniversary ring that Mark bought me last week for our 1 year wedding anniversary. Well I probably could, on my pinky fingers though.

Well, please keep your unswollen (lucky you) fingers crossed and pray that I don't get too much fluid retention and it doesn't get too bad! I should probably lay off the chips and salty foods. I already drink lots of water so I'm sure that helps. I'll do anything I can do to reduce the swelling.
