Does your dh wear his wedding band?

Gabe did always until it got too tight. It was literally cutting the circulation in his finger. We need to get it resized.

I didn't wear mine for awhile for the same reason. I gained so much during my pregnancy, but am back to wearing mine again.

We both wear ours....even when he went to war! (not supposed to wear anything that might reflect light) Ours were custom made in Ireland! Mine is just too cool ~ even if we weren't together, I'd still wear it on my other hand - I love my wedding band!

I don't wear my engagement ring anymore though.....it's an emerald (I don't like diamonds) and I was constantly scraping it on patient's beds...I wore it pinned on my uniform, but now I don't wear it at all....

We both wear ours however in the winter mine tends to become really loose when my hands get cold and I can't count the number of times it has almsot fallen off while I was packing a box to ship off at work.

My ring has history to it and sentimental value. We picked out the engagement ring band, but the diamond came from the engagement ring that my dad gave my mom in 1969.

She'd kept the ring in a lock box since she got re-married and offered it to me once Joe and I talked about getting married.

Yes we both do even though dh is not supposed to. Something to do with the metal and electromagnetic fields and setting off bombs, I dunno. If he has to he takes it off and puts it in his pocket.

I wear mine but I have a marquis cut diamond (a small one, but hey, its mine!) and it scratches dh and the kids sometimes. I feel bad, but I have worn it for 10 years and even thought I could replace it, I don't. This is the ring dh gave me and this is OUR wedding band. Make sense?

Yes, he does.

We both wear ours. He didn't wear it to Iraq. I wore it on a chain around my neck. It was hard to give it up! LOL

He wears his (not sure he could even get it off at this point) He even wore it through surgery.

I don't wear mine- they are snug and get caught on patients at the hospital.

Dh always wears his band, don't think he's ever taken it off. I've had my band off when I was pregnant and wore it on a chaim around my neck. I don't wear my diamond engagement ring after having to replace prongs twice. It used to get cought on everything, and now it's just so nice not worrying about it. Simple band is perfect.

We both wear them. He has never taken it off. I had to keep my rings off when I was pregnant with our boys. My hands always swelled up, and I didn't want to have to have it cut off. He won't even let me try and take it off his hand.

**Katybird** · 12-27-2003, 09:26 AM

DH always wears his even though he works in a machine shop and uses equipment that makes it dangerous he will not take it off. I worry about him getting it caught and losing a finger but he is adament about wearing it.

I always wear mine too.

**SewCrafty** · 12-27-2003, 10:35 AM

I wear mine all the time.

Dh doesn't wear his, when he was working he couldn't. Now he only wears it if we go out or on vacation.

**PrairieRose** · 12-27-2003, 10:38 AM

Yes he does. I do as well, 99% of the time. Sometimes I take it off when I'm washing and cleaning. I love my wedding ring, dh had it made for my out of my old ones when we were married 25 yrs.

**Heather** · 12-27-2003, 10:41 AM

DH wears his all the time, he can't get it off!!

I wear mine when I go out for sure but take it off if I'm cleaning etc.

**doodlebug** · 12-27-2003, 12:39 PM

No, he's never worn it because he works with electrical stuff all the time and it's too much of a risk for electrocution or getting it hung up in something. Where he works they are not allowed to wear rings or jewelry of any kind because of the risk.
