O Most Blessed Trinity, I your unworthy creature, thank you for all the gifts and privileges which you have granted to Saint Gerard, especially for those virtues with which you have adorned him on earth and the glory which you impart to him in heaven. Accomplish your work, O Lord, for the greater glory of the Holy Church. Glorify him before men and women and through his merits, in union with those of Jesus and Mary, grant me the grace for which I ask to be blessed with another child, a sibling for my daughter and to be blessed with a safe delivery. And you, my powerful intercessor St. Gerard, always so ready to help those who have recourse to you, pray also for me. Prostrate yourself before the throne of Divine Mercy and please do not leave it without being heard. To you I confide this important and urgent affair. Graciously take my cause in hand and let me not end without having experienced in some way the effects of your intercession. Amen.

Dear St. Gerald, I am now again pregnant but somehow I'm afraid this time coz I'm already 38 yrs old and my body might not be that strong anymore. Add to that I have a problem with RH incompatibility with my 2nd daughter. I pray that this RH incompatibility will not recur again this time. My family and I are not that financially stable and I also pray that our financial woes will be solved once and for all as I think this is already affecting me and my unborn baby, even if I don't want it to affect me. In Jesus' Name, thank you very much. Amen.

St. Gerard I have been praying to you for several months to interceed for me and ask that I am blessed with a healthy pregnancy. I miscarried last year during my first pregnancy after 7 years of trying for a child. I am now pregnant again and am fearful of losing this blessing. Please pray for me that this child will continue to grow strong in my womb so that I will be able to give birth to a healthy baby and raise it up in Jesus name. Bless me with a healthy pregnancy and bless the child whom I now carry that it may see the light of day and life giving waters of baptism. In Jesus name, Amen.

Thank you for praying with us through the difficult first trimester, for stopping the bleeding and virtually all negative pregnancy symptoms.
