Well Nikki, that would be my first choice, but I think 4 weeks early is a little wishful thinking!!

I was going to suggest trying to have the baby. I'm sure that'd do wonders for the swelling ]]> Fri, 18 Jan 2008 14:43:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13686&PID=280407&title=how-to-get-rings-off#280407 <![CDATA[How to get rings off? : Yay i&#039;m glad you got them...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13686&PID=280263&title=how-to-get-rings-off#280263 Author: mummy_becks

Finally managed to get them off last night. They looked like they had gone down slightly so just yanked and they eventually came off! Got a bit stuck on the knuckle and made the end of my finger go purple for a while but all good now. Got a lovely indent on my finger still so they must have been tight. And its white under there!!

Soapy water works for me, dunk your hands in a sink full of soapy water and take them off while soaking in the soapy bath. Just make sure you don't flush them down the drain after!

ETA: it's a 2-in-1 treatment too as it cleans your rings at the same time

moisturiser is what we use at work when we have people with stuck rings come in and wanting them cut off. You will find the more you try, the more swollen your fingers get. Try after you have had a good lie down and are'nt too hot. Good luck!]]> Thu, 17 Jan 2008 14:14:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13686&PID=279626&title=how-to-get-rings-off#279626 <![CDATA[How to get rings off? : Am going to try later tonight...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13686&PID=279598&title=how-to-get-rings-off#279598 Author: aimeejoy

Am going to try later tonight or first thing in the morning. They have puffed up with the heat (oh and prob all the weight gain!!). Will try all of the above suggestions tho, as really want them off. now that I have noticed it is annoying me they are so tight. ]]> Thu, 17 Jan 2008 13:42:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13686&PID=279598&title=how-to-get-rings-off#279598 <![CDATA[How to get rings off? : any luck getting your rings off...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13686&PID=279581&title=how-to-get-rings-off#279581 Author: lucky3rdtime

There is a trick that ambulence staff use to get rings off, or fingers out of small spaces! It involves winding a piece of string around it, cant remember how but mum told me and they do it where she works at the Dr.

You could try ringing the Dr's and see if they know!]]> Thu, 17 Jan 2008 12:21:37 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13686&PID=279549&title=how-to-get-rings-off#279549 <![CDATA[How to get rings off? : Vasoline?

What Monster said. Otherwise, stick your hand in the freezer for a minute or so, and see if that does the trick

and don't try again until tomorrow morning when the general temp is cooler ]]> Thu, 17 Jan 2008 10:31:44 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13686&PID=279497&title=how-to-get-rings-off#279497 <![CDATA[How to get rings off? : olive oil?

Argh! Just realised my wedding and engagement ring are getting too tight. Tried to get them off first thing this morning, ran under cold tap and used soap but not a hope

So are there any tricks for getting them off? If I cant I'll just have to leave them and hope I dont puff up much more...]]> Thu, 17 Jan 2008 10:14:42 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13686&PID=279487&title=how-to-get-rings-off#279487
