St. Gerard's Chapel: Prayers for Pregnant Women and Those Wanting to Conceive

[Sacred Heart lover]

A couple of prayer requests:

For my sister, who recently miscarried her first child. She and her husband are struggling under heavy grief. Please pray for consolation and courage for them.

Also for myself- my second child will be arriving within the next couple weeks. With my first pregnancy,  I had difficulties with my blood pressure. After doing so well this time, it’s started to become more difficult to control. Please pray for a healthy blood pressure and healthy delivery for me.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.

Try Hawthorne. Balances blood pressure. Take the minimum dose. Read Louise Tenny Today's Herbal Health for a more complete routine. Best wishes. Prayers. So sorry, much hope for your little ones. Some comfort is that the soul of the baby goes to a natural state of happiness, unless fortunate enough to be baptized. Then it goes to Heaven. According to Tradition.

Thank you. Sadly the little ones my sister and I lost were not able to be baptized. I just trust God in His justice and mercy and leave them to Him.


Thanks for the advice as well! I asked my midwife about it, and she also thoroughly recommended hawthorn tincture. I’ve been taking it and my blood pressure stayed under control :)

Many prayers of thanksgiving!!! My little one arrived yesterday, and we both are doing great! Deo gratias!

Let’s spare a prayer for Cecilia, who is also expecting her little one any day now.

I am now expecting a third baby, however, things are looking more like a threatened miscarriage. The sac around the baby isn't growing properly, and I've been bleeding very heavily. The little one is still alive, but I don't know for how much longer. Please spare a prayer for my littlest, myself, and my husband. We are very sad, but trying to accept God's will, whatever it is.

An update: we lost the baby :( please spare a prayer for us.

Oh, Catherine,

May you feel the warm embrace of Our Lady as you mourn your loss.

May the Holy Angels surround you and comfort you as they comforted Our Lord in the Garden.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.

Thank you, Sacred Heart Lover.
