You might look at Van Craeynest wedding bands. They have some lovely, delicate die cast rings. (I'm horribly biased because I have one.) Here's their website. My wedding band is the second one from the bottom in the stack of "bangle rings" pictured on the front page of "Collections". It's about 2mm ... |

Congratulations on your engagement. That''s a beautiful stone, and the basket of the ring is gorgeous! |

A friend of mine just had almost exactly the same situation. She never ended up admitted to the hospital, but she spent 3 1/2 weeks going in for non-stress tests and other monitoring twice a week, with the possibility of induction or C/S hanging over her head. She delivered a perfect, healthy baby g... |

I''m sorry. That sounds like a super stressful situation. I hope you get a seasonal job - it sounds like a little money + getting out of the house = win. Maybe it''ll give you momentum going into the new year. Good luck! |
