I don't wear mine because it needs to be resized.

I take mine off every night as I can't sleep with my rings on. I never wear them when I'm doing dishes or taking a shower either

Until about 2 weeks ago I never took them off. I tried one night and they were stuck, had a panic attack and almost cut them off. Now I can't get them back on, they're on my pinkie now. Have to get them resized.

I used to never take it off, but now it falls off all the time. I need to have it resized. Every morning I am digging through the bed trying to find it, I guess I need to start sleeping with it off or trying the tip that I believe Graci gave for a homemade fix!!:D

I consider my band and diamonard as together. They stay on for fear of loosing them.. Unless I'm making meatloaf or kneading bread.

I take mine off when I am at home. I know it sounds funny but with fibro I have decided to be as comfortable as possible and that means no jewelry unless I am going out. It just bugs me.

I never take mine off, but I lost over 50lbs so now they need to resized, I have a ring guard on it but that's not helping any.

Mine have been off now for about 8 months. :( I swelled up so bad in the summer I had to take them off and now I can't get them back on.

I have never taken mine off in 11 years. That's one reason I didn't want diamonds, I garden and do so much hands on dirty work, I just wanted a gold band so I wouldn't feel the need to take it off for fear of damaging it. Dh and I thought about getting them engraved last year on our 10th anniversary, but neither of us wanted to take them off and leave them anywhere!

I almost never wear mine. I hate snug rings, so it has to be loose to be comfortable, but then I'm always paranoid about losing it.

Most of the time I don't bother with it.

I didn't wear it on my finger when pregnant but did put it on a chain I wore around my neck. Have some trouble with them getting too tight when I walk alot or in the summer.

I got mine resized with the engagement and wedding band welded together and now they don't come off except if I'm in the middle of something sticky and mucky like making meatloaf mixture or kneading bread dough.

I forgot to take my rings off when painting this summer and had to go to the jewelers in the mall to get the primer blasted out of my engagement ring. Wasn't looking good on my diamond.

Never take them off unless I'm doing something messy in the kitchen. Although, from the time I got pregnant with DD (she's 7 now), I couldn't get them off, no matter what! I finally went in to the jeweller's a couple of years ago, and had them cut off and resized.

Every night and whenever I'm doing something sticky/dirty/etc. When I worked at Michael's and when I was pregnant I wore only the band and left the engagement ring at home.

I only wear my band, but I do take it off if I'm kneading bread dough, etc.

I wear mine most of the time but don't sleep in it, don't wear it in the shower or when washing dishes or doing something mucky as Margery says. I love wearing my rings though.

Doctors orders...I took my wedding band and engagement ring off three weeks ago. I'm having a little pregnancy swelling and she didn't want to wind up cutting them off. :D

I only take mine off when I put lotion on or when they are being cleaned, other than that they are always on!

The only time I take mine off is when I am doing my hair. I use lots of goopy hair products and don't want it all in my rings. :)

I haven't had mine on since I was pregnant with my first child... Almost ten years ago...:( I had been wearing my mothers ring in its place, but then my dear, dear, dear daughter (2yrs) wanted to watch it go down the water slide (flushed it:( :mad: )...Any way, I will be getting a replacement mothers ring and my wedding band resized... :smball:

I take mine off for yardwork, dishes, putting on lotion, etc and also for cleanings. It still fits for now with this pregnancy and seems like it will for awhile. With DD, it didn't fit the last 6 weeks of pregnancy and for 2 weeks after she was born. My fingers feel weird without my rings on.

The only time I take mine off is to clean them and when I do my husband always puts them back on my finger.

I don't sleep with it on. In the morning I put it on after I'm fully dressed, all lotions and potions are on. If I'm cooking something really messy I'll remove it for that too. It's insured and has to have a professional cleaning every six months, so it comes off for that as well.

I only wear them when I leave the house. I like to be comfortable at home, and I don't want to mess up my diamonds.

I can't wear my engagment or wedding band because I got bigger :bang:.

When I could wear them, I only wore them if I was going out of the house.
