Brother, the Lord will see us through no matter what happens, just like the Lord will see you and your precious wife though - [i]no matter what happens.[/i] In the face of barreness and complications the strength of our Lord shines forth like the sun. There's something about barreness and difficult pregnacies (or not being able to conceive) that God uses to show His strength; whether it be with Abraham and barren Sarah, Jacob and barren Rachel, Jabez's painful birth, Hannah's barreness (the mother of Samuel), Manoah's barren wife (the mother of Samson), Elisha and the barren Shunammite, Elizabeth's barreness (John the Baptist's mother), and of course, the most miraculous birth of all which is our Lord coming forth from a virgin womb.So, you see, we're in good company...and even better Hands.:-) Brother Paul

Since she's in such discomfort, I wouldn't ignore it as usual pain relievers mayn't help her. Bottom line: please explore the docs recommendation.
Neither of you can really understand how your wives feel but the One who knows is more than able to give you peace.SHALOM.

Go in peace and be freed from your suffering."I had such peace the Lord gave me. May the Lord guide and take control over this situation. Praying for you and your wife.
