Wedding bands

Posted about 1 month ago I have read that no rings are preferred, but a plain wedding band is allowed. What are your experiences? I have a diamond eternity band. The diamonds are set within the band so there are no rough edges. Would this be acceptable? HMJensen |

| Posted about 1 month ago I am assuming that you are talking about what is acceptable in clinicals. Your eternity band is probably not going to be allowed because the settings around the diamonds are great places to collect bacteria and dirt. Celebrate breastfeeding! |

| Posted about 1 month ago clinicals are one thing, but working is also a tough one. I work in ER, and my wedding band is too big and can catch on patients and medical equipment. You have to be careful about that one. A good man loves God and lives well....but

| Posted about 1 month ago I wore my plain gold band only for clinicals. I bought an eternity band with channel set stones and wear it to work. It is like anything else, you wear to work, you have to wash it throughly. But with it being channel set, no problems with scratching clients with it, or it tearing my gloves. |

| Posted about 1 month ago I agree with Shan on this one...the small areas in the channel can get NASTY! Wear it to work for a few days and then culture it. Don't be surprised to see E.Coli, Staph, etc. YUCK! |

| Posted about 1 month ago Thanks for your input everyone. My husband and I dated for 15 years before I finally got the ring, so it is definately something I hold close to my heart. Perhaps I am being a bit too sentimental. Thank you for all of your opinions. HMJensen |

| Posted about 1 month ago My husband, a cardiac nurse, bought me a wedding band that has a diamond set in it. It is titanium and the diamond looks as if it were floating. I have no problems with cleaning/washing around it. The band does not get scratched easily either. I have had my ring since January 2008 and no scratches. We bought it at Ultra Diamonds and it was between 150-200 dollars.
