You may be able to get medical disability for the work that you can not do.  My friend had to leave work early and was able to collect disability for the 2 months before her due-date.  It's worth looking into.. 

 

Also, if you plan on going back to work pp with twins, isn't daycare going to be about half of your pay?   This might just be preparation for the near future.  :)

I would contact your HR dept and see what their Short term disability policy is like.

Can you look into WIC as well? That might help with some of your food costs, and you might be eligible now that you aren't working FT.
