Pray for the Twinners

Good friends of ours, Dave & Abi Lamar, are expecting twins at the end of January. That puts her at 22 weeks. Last week Abi was put on bed rest because her cervix was shortening & starting to funnel. On Wednesday she went in for another check and was making progress in the right direction. Her cervix was between 3.8 and 4.1 cm long (38-41 mm) compared to 2.9 cm which it was (Should be around 5.5 cm) and the funneling as improving as well. The bed rest seemed to be working.
This morning however, I received this e-mail from church.
" Abi (and the twins) are in the hospital.
The measurements we spoke of before (3.8 to 4.2) have now changed to 1.2 -
this is NOT a good thing. For those of you more medically minded: her
cervix is funneling. They are watching her closely and we are praying there
is dynamic change in the cervix (in the RIGHT direction - bigger numbers)
and that labor does not begin. "
I ask that you pray for Dave, Abi & the Twinners (as they are affectionately called).
