We have had a very difficult time with 2 previous miscarriages and 1 recent ectopic. Everyone but my Husband and myself have the odds stacked against our little baby. We need a miracle to help our baby grow and thrive. Thank you.

St. Gerard:
Thank you once again. I held my one-day-old grandchild in my arms yesterday, the little guy I have been asking you to protect in my novenas these past eight months. He made it and is absolutely perfect. I will never forget you and remember back those 34 years ago as I wore your medal and prayed to conceive his father, my first-born. I had been married nine years and so wanted a child. I include you in my prayers and spread the word for those who dearly want a child. Thank you.

Please St. Gerard, intercede for me, I humbly pray thee! God knows how heartbroken I was when I miscarried our honeymoon baby last year. What a surprise it is that I am now suddenly pregnant again. I speechless and while I want to rejoice in this gift, I feel hesitant and scared. Please pray for me and my unborn child that I may have a healthy, safe pregnancy and delivery. And to always watch over this baby. Please give my angel baby a hug & kiss from me. May God's will be done.
Dear St Gerard,
Please pray for my son and his wife and their unborn child of 21 weeks. She is in hospital at the moment at risk from having a miscarraige. They found out on Wednesday they are having a boy. They are devastated at the thought of losing my little grandson. Please intercede for this little boy and shield him from harm until he is safely born. For the glory of God.
Dear St. Gerard, I'm almost 37 weeks pregnant. Was diagnosed with HPV on my 3-4th month. One of the reasons why this pregnancy of mine had been stressful. I underwent cauterization last October and was supposedly scheduled for another session this coming Sunday so that I can deliver normally without getting my son infected. I prayed your Novena for 9 consecutive days for 2 cycles now. Today I had a visit with my OB the warts are getting smaller and some disappeared. My cauterization was cancelled since my immune system is fighting the virus itself. And I remembered those nights I prayed for you're intercession. Thanks for this miracle St. Gerard! I'm about to delivery anytime now Dear GERARD. Please make my delivery easy and normal and that my son will be healthy. THANK YOU DEAR SAINT GERARD!!! THANK YOU PRAYING FOR ME AND MY SON!
Please pray for us St Gerard. I have been diagnosed to have a polyhydramnious condition in my pregnancy, I'm 33 weeks pregnant, please shield my baby from harm, keep us safe and have a healthy baby girl. Please guide me St Gerard to my pregnancy. In Jesus name, Amen.
