Please say a prayer for my wife and kids

[matt4hand]

So my wife an I had an appointment with our high risk OB today for a check up on our incoming twins Jack and Addison.

We tried to get pregnant for 2.5 years and went through 3 IUI's and 1 round of Invetro IVF. It was VERY hard and VERY expensive. My wife was crushed today by the news.

Well after the ultra sound the Dr. said the girl is much smaller than the boy and my wife was ordered to stage 3 bed rest. This is one step below hospital bed rest. We've got 16 weeks to go till D day.

Anyone have experience with this? I will do anything to keep my little ones safe but boy it's scary!

Please say a prayer for us.

My wife can no longer work and is basically bed ridden.

Here are the instructions from the Dr.:

8-10 Hours of sleep.
Rest in bed all day, and on your left side as much as possible.
You may only get up to go to the bathroom and take a short shower.
Do not climb stairs unless absolutely necessary.
You will need someone else to do all the household chores and childcare.
Eat meals in bed, lying on your side.
Leave house only for Dr. Appointments or emergencies.

They are going to re-evaluate her in 2 weeks and see if we need to put her in the hospital.
