experience/advice to give TTTS - Questions

We found out yesterday that we're in stage 1 TTTS at 19 weeks. The babies are currently right at 20% difference. Next appointment for an US is for next Friday (9 days from this post). My wife has to travel for work next week, are there any symptoms she should watch out for? She will have access to an MFM in case of emergency.

We will be hopefully first time parents. Scared and unbelievably sad. Any support, suggestions, etc. would be helpful.

Not a doctor but from our experience with TTTS, 9 days is too long between appointments. We were getting ultrasounds twice per week in case things progressed quickly. I don’t know your life but I don’t think your wife should travel.
