    Question who has an eternity ring?

    When do you get an eternity ring? Is there any set time or event?

    Who has one already?


    Would ten years of marriage suffice

    I always thought it was first wedding anniversary or birth of first child. (I got mine just after birth of first child)

    But really it doesnt matter when you get it as long as you do LOL

    I got one for my first wedding anniversary but DS was born only 2 weeks beforehand so it was kind of a joint eternity ring/"push present" LOL.

    I get a new piece of jewellery for each baby.

    Mine was for our first anniversary also, although alot of people made comments that I was very quick to get one, and it's usually after more years or the birth of the first child. Ultimately I think it comes down to each individual couple.

    I do have a feeling DH didn't want years of me pestering him for one so he just went for the first year anniversary lol

    I got mine when I was pregnant with DD. We had been married for nearly 6 years. My Mum didn't get hers for something like 15 years.

    ME TOO!!!!!

    my last ring had 10 diamonds in it...one for each baby, including angel baby's J man and I had made together.

    Maybe I should have gotten one for our 10 year anni....

    I got mine for my first birthday after our first baby was born. Mind you, we'd been married over 10 years by then!

    DH was going to get me one for our first wedding anniversary but stupid me said no as I had other priorities for money and I don't really want to get it to match the wedding/engagement set so thougth I'd wait. But now DD is born I should get onto it We've been married for 5 years come February.

    I got mine just after DS was born. It's yellow gold channel set with 10 diamonds and I looove it

    Considering we're not even married yet, I think your 10 years of marriage definitely suffice! lol

    I was given mine just after I had DD. It's a family heirloom and belonged to the Bear's grandmother who we named DD after so it's super special.

    We've been married 3 years and no sign of it yet. But I get jewellery every anniversary, and sometimes in between too

    DH just said we need to have been married for an eternity before I get an eternity ring

    My DH joked several times that 1yr of marriage felt like an eternity so might as well go the whole hog and get the ring to match..... it was only several times as in that year I'd well and truly developed 'the look' that I promptly gave him in reply lol
