Dear St. Gerard, you once blessed us with our second child, today he is a healthy boy. I am once again 10 weeks pregnant but we just found out yesterday that the baby no longer has a heartbeat. My Doctor wants me to go through with a D&C but my husband and I are still hopeful and praying for a miracle. When we had our oldest child, we were also told her heartbeat had stopped. But we didn't give up and I kept her. After requesting to have several ultrasound, a week after the doctor's findings, on the third ultrasound, and after many prayers, my oldest daughter's heartbeat was found. We are hoping that the same miracle will now happen to us with my third pregnancy. Please help pray for my baby to be saved. Thank you.
Dear St. Gerard,

Also for all those who cannot conceive, bless us.
Amen.
Thank you.
Please pray that my daughter gets top marks in her midwifery viva exam Wednesday 17th August 2011. Let her be very confident, competent, successful and please the examiners in this verbal exam. This is her final midwifery exam and if she gets very good marks she is hoping for a first class honours degree.
St Gerard Majella please let this be possible for her and let her make an excellent staff midwife.
Oh St. Gerard, pray for us that we may conceive and give birth to a healthy baby. We have been trying to conceive for three years now, we have been to the doctor, had surgery and have been faithfully praying. We ask for your intercession in helping us conceive. We also ask for your prayers for all women who are pregnant that they may have healthy pregnancies and for all women trying to conceive. Bless us with healthy children in God's honor and glory. Amen

Dear Saint Gerard,
I had a miscarriage two months, they were twins, identical. I was 9 w 1 day. I think that I may be pregnant again. Please St. Gerard, I was given your card by a client of my mine who DID NOT know I had a miscarriage. I believe that she was sent from GOD. So if I am pregnant, please please let me have a safe pregnancy and deliver a healthy baby. I have two boys, ages 11 and 7, very healthy and strong from a previous marriage. Thank you for praying over ALL mothers for a safe delivery.

I am 6 weeks pregnant with my third child. This is the first child I have conceived with my husband as I am a convert to the Catholic faith and was a single mother for years. God has blessed me so quickly I turned to Jesus Mary and also asked for your intercession. I pray that you will intercede for me and implore our lord that our child will be delivered safely and that we will have many Catholic children to help replenish the church and the faith I also ask that you pray for one or our children or more if it is Gods will live a religious live and be called to a vocation to the priesthood or the religious life. I also pray that I will have a happy lifelong union with my husband in every way that is pleasing to God and that you and mother Mary pray again for all the people who have written prayers here and for all infertile people and the people of China. Thank you for your help so far. Praise Jesus
Amen

I was got pregnant and married my boyfriend (my husband, present) at the age of 19. I was so afraid that my child would bear my sins. Until my mother introduced St. Gerard to me. She gave my a Novena booklet with different prayers for moms to be. And so, I did what she said. I was so happy I gave birth to a very beautiful and healthy baby! Whenever she gets sick, I pray and ask for St. Gerard's help and most of all from God Almighty. I love you, St. Gerard! I love you, Jesus!
