When I was pregnant, I prayed to St. Raymond...on my 8th month, I had painless bleeding due to the placenta previa; I delivered via casearian and through God's mercy, despite my daughter's premature birth, she came out healthy and did not need to be incubated.

St Raymond please pray for my unborn baby boy he has a heart condition, please pray that his heart will heal and it will grow strong and healthy my due date is 13th July. Pray for all the expectant mothers around the world.
I believe in the intercession of saints & right now is a good time to ask for his help to strengthen our faith & trust in our Creator amidst unfolding plans in our married life. We certainly wish for a child but it's all dependent on God's will & may His will be done.
