small ring, fat finger, Dental Floss.....

Like many I will never be the size I was when I married my DDH. My wedding ring will not pass my knuckle and it looks unsightly. Has anyone tried the dental floss method of removing a tight wedding ring? I have looked on you tube and it looks quite easy, if a little painful.

Our idea is, because DDH's ring is now too loose and fits me (I wore it while he was in hospital last year as his fingers swelled.) We intend to swap the rings. This instead of me having to have mine made larger.
