I agree with you sister that women have to be modest and keep body parts close but all the rest actions are the same and it is the hanafi scholars who say that there are many differences.welli dont know which scholor ur following.perhaps hanafi i guess
chekc out this link http://www.hasnain.net/books/womenprayer.htm
a woman should always be modest no matter where she is and this includes in the prayer as well
The woman should keep her limbs close to her body during bowing and prostration, and not spread them out, because this is more modest and covering. (Al-Mughni, 2/258)
Al-Nawawi said: ¡°In his Al-Mukhtasar, Ash-Shafi`i said that there is no difference between men and women in Prayer, except that women should keep the parts of their bodies close to one another, and they should make their stomachs touch their thighs during prostration. This is more covering and preferable in bowing and the rest of the Prayer as well.¡± (Al-Majmu`, 3/429)
