Lord,
I thank You for this baby and I give my pregnancy to You, praying that throughout the whole time You will be there to comfort and encourage and strengthen each member of the family.
I pray that You would place Your hand of blessing on this little human being that is being formed in my womb... may he or she grow up to know You and may they become a mighty person of God.
Thank You for all my children, which have become such a blessing to me - into Your hand I commit myself, my husband, my family and this precious little addition to our home - for which I praise You
My God, Creator of beauty and purity
Molder of body and soul,
I am the woman now standing before You in prayer.
Purify me at brooks of water
Anoint me with myrrh and incense
Renew light within me like the radiance of the moon.
My Lord,
My womb which You have given me
Is pure;
Place a soul in my midst.
Then may my home be whole before You,
And my insides be lined with love.
You know my deep desire for a child
A little one to love and to hold, to care for,
to cherish. Grant that my body may conceive
and give birth to a beautiful, healthy baby in
Your holy image.
Guide me in all my choices so that this
conception, my pregnancy, and my baby's birth
are in line with Your will.
Heavenly Father...
hear this prayer of my heart, mind, and spirit.
Amen.
Heavenly Father, molder of body and soul, thank you for the gift of life that you have placed in my womb. Thank you, Lord, for predestining this child to be brought into the world by my husband and I. Father, give us the grace to be good parents and help us to bring up this child in a way that brings glory to your name. Be a shield of protection around this child as it develops in my womb. Protect us from every manner of sickness and disease that pregnant women are vulnerable to get. In Jesus' name, I pray, Amen.
Father God, thank you for the baby that your knitting together in my womb. These first weeks are fragile, Father, I ask you to guide the growth of my child and I. May my heart rejoice in the beauty of the life that is growing on the inside of me. Let your perfect love cast away every fear and worry that comes to steal my joy. Help me to believe that you are guarding us as I go through the challenges that come with pregnancy like morning sickness. In Jesus' name, I pray, Amen.
Lord God, I cannot go through this pregnancy alone. I need your divine strength to help me face the challenges that come with pregnancy. Lord your eyes have seen the substance of my baby yet unformed. In your book are written the days fashioned for him when he still in my womb. Cover him with the blood of your Son, Jesus. Give me divine strength to carry this pregnancy and strengthen the fetus. May I have no complication during this pregnancy and after I have given birth. Holy Mary, give me strength each day that I may be able to handle what awaits me as a mother. In Jesus' name, I believe and pray, Amen.
Father, I praise you with my whole heart. I praise your name for your loving-kindness. Lord, thank you for blessing me with this gift. As this child develops in my womb help him or her to stay in the right position so that at the time of birth, I might not have any complications. Align my child to the anterior position and let my body be ready for delivery. Blessed Virgin intercede for me all through the pregnancy. In Jesus' name, I believe and pray, Amen.
Dear God, may this child come to know and love you from childhood. Cover this child with your love and let your glory be upon him or her in the womb. When the child comes to this world, let us shower him or her with the Christ-like love. Father, may this child love you with all his mind, soul and strength. May the soul of this baby follow closely behind you and may your right hand uphold him or her. In Jesus' name, I believe and pray, Amen.
