    I have an eternity ring I received for our 1st wedding anniversary. I wear it in front of my engagement and wedding rings.

    When I fell pg with my first child I told DH he had to buy me a 'maternity' ring. You know, like an eternity ring only a woman gets it when she falls pg?? He fell for it and I wear my 'maternity' ring on my right hand. The blokes at work gave him hell for it! I also received a beautiful necklace when my first DD was born. For the other two bubba's.... NOTHIN'!!!

    This was a big joke between DH and I in our first year of marriage. We got pg within the first 6wks of getting pg and I always told him he had to get me an eternity ring - which is usually given at the end of the first year of marriage but when I got pg it turned into a Maternity Ring LOL. DS was born 6 weeks before our first anniversary, but I got the ring by the time our anniversary rolled around and we were on holidays. It was a sapphire and diamond setting.

    I'm still waiting. We've been married for 5 years. We decided I will get one when we renew our vows on our 10th anniversary.

    I just got one for christmas it matches my wedding ring. I was hinting at one as my fingers have shrunk so I was wearing my rings on my middle finger so I said I needed an eternity ring in the right size so they would hold my other rings on my ring finger

    DH and I have been discussing it over the last week or so... My BIL gave my SIL one at Christmas and they got married in October.

    I had heard 1st year, 5th year and first baby...

    Does it have to be a band of diamonds? Or 'traditionally' that's what they are?

    Mine has 9 small diamonds all together on top half of band. I wear on right hand as looked too much with 3 rings on 1 finger on 1 hand. And Jewler actually said better to wear on right.

    Mine has 12 diamonds on the top. DH chose that one as it matches my engagement and wedding bands.
