dear st. gerard majella, this is the 2nd day(sept.11,2012) after i was injected with a methotrexate to stop my pregnancy since it is an ectopic one. i feel so sorry for our baby in my womb because he is so alive but had to put a stop to his growth. i pray for forgiveness that i can't do anything to save our baby. I'm still have that hope in me that our baby in my womb right now would miraculously go in my uterus, where he should be, instead of staying in my fallopian tube. and if it happens that i can still carry him full term and give birth to him alive, i pray that the methotrexate that was injected to me will miraculously not cause him harm in any way, for him to still be normal and healthy in all aspects of his being. my husband, our daughter and i have been waiting for this baby, we love him and we are praying so hard that this would be it, that my 1st ectopic last feb 2012 won't happen again.this we pray in JESUS' name. amen.

Dear St. Gerard, I want first thank you for answering my prayers to conceive and for answering my prayers when I was having complications a few weeks ago, I am now almost 6 mnths pregnant with a little boy and found out that I am in danger again this time with my cervix I ask that you please watch over me and my unborn child that I carry and protect me from danger. I also ask that you bless me and watch over me so that I can carry this child to full term. I am due December 27th.
Dear St. Gerard,
I have recently heard about you and after reading previous comments I see that my "problem" is so minute compared to theirs. I am just worried she may go past her due date. She is my first baby and she is due in 5 days but I am so anxious to have her in my arms already! But I realize our Lord Jesus Christ knows when it is best for her to arrive. But if possible I beg you to please interfere for my husband and I before our Lord and ask Him to please have our Sophie arrive here soon, and very healthy too of course. I will also keep in my prayers the comments other peole have wrote on this page so that they too may conceive a child and carry a healthy baby through labor!
Thank you for listening to me, Amen.
Dear St. Gerard - Thank for for getting my daughter through surgery. Please let her recovery be uncomplicated.
St Gerard,
Please hear my prayers for my husband, my unborn baby, and myself. We are in the 6th week of our 3rd pregancy. Unfortunately, the first 2 were unsuccessful and I feel each one took a piece of my heart with it when it went. I ask you to PLEASE intercede before God for me and help me to stay calm and not worry about EVERYTHING as I have been. I had an ultrasound yesterday and for the FIRST time EVER heard my baby's heartbeat. Now today, I'm having slight cramping and spotting and I am VERY scared. I pray that you and God help me to be able to carry my baby to full term and have a happy, healthy baby, to be able to raise him/her up in the church and in our faith. Thank you for allowing me this chance again.
May God Bless you St Gerard...after 6 yrs our prayers are answered and we now have a beautiful baby girl, Elizabeth.
I am eternally grateful and praise God everyday.
I will pray for everyone, who like me, could not conceive, miracles do happen.
Amen
