But I humbly ask You to help me endure suffering and send a prosperous outcome.

Hear, Merciful God, the prayer of Your last servant, fulfill the prayer of our heart, for the sake of Jesus Christ, our Savior, who became incarnate for us, now abides with You and the Holy Spirit and rules in eternity. Amen."

My Story of How Prayers Helped Me Get Pregnant

“After several unsuccessful attempts to get pregnant, it became scary that planning a child could take a long time. One day, while reading information about planning, I saw a prayer that helps to get pregnant. In this article, it can be found under the title − Prayer to the Lord God of spouses who do not have children for the gift of children. Decided to rewrite to your phone and print it out. After reading the prayer, there was such peace. Almost at the same time, I noticed that a seed of poplar fluff was circling near me, so white and light. The mood rose even more, I thought it was a good sign. Reading the prayer every day, I managed to learn it, although it is quite large.

To our surprise and happiness, the next month I found out that I was pregnant! The miracle doesn't end there. Already after the birth of my son, I saw that I had copied the prayer into the phone - June 13 on Thursday. And exactly 9 months later - on March 13 on Thursday, I became a mother! When the son grew up, they decided to have a second child. The whole month of planning, she read prayers for the onset of pregnancy.

It remained only to hope for them and believe in a miracle. Because there were health problems that could prevent getting pregnant and carrying the baby. The next month, I found out I was pregnant! The first thing I did was read prayers for the preservation of pregnancy. After reading the prayer to the Righteous Joachim and Anna, I gave myself a word - if a daughter is born - I will call her Anna. The pregnancy was very stressful due to threats of miscarriage. But I believed and prayed.

In the summer in due time, I became a mother for the second time! A daughter was born, who was named Anna!

I consider my story nothing less than a miracle. I would like to tell everyone who dreams of getting pregnant that you need to pray to the Saints as often as possible, with great faith and sincerity. Don't be discouraged if pregnancy doesn't come right away. There is a time for everything and it will come soon! Don't forget to thank the Saints for their help.

We wish you a speedy pregnancy, easy delivery and healthy babies!

Procreation is one of the important and inalienable goals of every person's life. The firstborn, a small and joyful copy of the parents, the fruit of love and tenderness, brings joy to the house and unites the family. A woman who has adopted her own baby in her arms will never be the same again. With the advent of a small creature, a new potential is revealed in her, mom is improving every day.

Every person dreams of a healthy child and his easy birth. Prayers for the preservation of pregnancy and conception are of great power, as well as significance for the unborn baby. Things don't always go smoothly. Sometimes pregnancy does not occur for a long time or proceeds with complications. This circumstance saddens failed parents, causes quarrels and omissions. So it was, is and always will be.

Important! Even in the Holy Scriptures, there are many examples when noble and righteous people, due to problems with conception, endured contempt and reproach from others, these are: Abraham and Sarah, Joachim and Anna (parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God), Zechariah and Elisabeth (parents John the Baptist), Priscilla and Aquila (disciples of the Apostle Paul) and many others!

But God said: "I will fulfill your desire in good things." The Lord himself blessed the birth of children. 1 commandment that he gave to Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden: "Be fruitful and multiply!"

Prayers for happy pregnancy they will certainly be heard and help if they are sincere. They must be read with an "open heart and soul." It is known from the Bible that Sarah, the wife of Abraham, conceived a child at the age of 90, and Elisabeth, the mother of John the Forerunner, was also elderly. Nothing is impossible for the Lord.

The achievements of modern medicine are great. To date, doctors are trying to help all spouses have the desired first-born: in vitro fertilization; hormonal drugs that support the life of the fetus; artificial bearing of a baby born prematurely.

Another thing is that reproductive services are very expensive. But it also happens: According to examinations, both the husband and wife are healthy, but it is not possible to give birth to a child. So maybe the problem is somewhere else?

The Bible says that the soul is given to the baby from the moment of conception. Archangel Gabriel also spoke about this, proclaiming the birth of Christ to the Virgin Mary. Prayer for a child in the womb is the beginning of raising a baby, which is very important for a successful birth. At an early stage, he still cannot move, but he already feels the care and love of his parents. Prayer for the preservation of pregnancy is very important in this period.

Prayer for conception

Spouses wishing to give birth to a child should certainly seek help from "Heaven" in this good deed.

You should also think about the church blessing of the union - the wedding. If for some reason it did not take place earlier, be sure to discuss its holding with the priest. Indeed, during the ceremony, prayers are read for pregnancy for the birth of a healthy child: “May your wife be fruitful like a vine.”

Informative! what is Amen and what is the meaning of the word

Those couples who have already sealed their union from above should treat each other with tenderness and respect. Do not blame your partner for problems, but try to solve them together. “He who abides in love abides in God,” says the Holy Scripture. It is love that is the key to a prosperous life and good luck in all endeavors.

Joint prayer of spouses is effective and important. Christ said: "Where two or three gather in my name, I will stand in the midst of them."

Those who wish to become parents should daily pray to the Lord and the saints. What prayers are read in this case:

• Prayer to the Most Holy Theotokos. "A mother's prayer to the supplication of the Lord can do much more." Appeal to the mother of God himself always carries a result. The Mother of God, being a woman and a mother, responds with great love to the requests of those who want to have children.
• The Lord endowed Saint Matrona with grace to help the barren. During her lifetime, she performed many miracles and after death continues to help all those who ask her. Prayers to the Matrona are read easily and quickly.
• Saint Nicholas of Myra the Miracle Worker is a person who can help with problems with conceiving and bearing a child. He is one of the most revered righteous people in our country. Turning to this saint for infertility is the right way to an early pregnancy and a successful delivery. “Blessed Nicholas, you were a disciple of the Lady. Save those flowing to you from the fierce troubles and death of Gorky.
• Reading the Psalter. If an Orthodox Christian has any serious petition to God, reading the Psalter for 40 days will be a great reinforcement to the request. This includes reading during pregnancy. The peculiarity of such actions lies in their powerful power, because according to legend, the Holy Spirit himself wrote the Psalter through King David. The Prophetic Songs, the Holy Gospel, the book of Esther, and the Correct Canons have a similar effect. Reading them daily can resolve any situation.
• Confession and Communion. These 2 sacraments of the Church, commanded in the "Holy Gospel", should become an integral part of the life of every Christian. In preparation for the birth of a child and pregnancy, they should be used as often as possible.

About pregnancy in Orthodoxy:

The Lord left a covenant to mankind to be fruitful and multiply (Genesis 1:28), but not all couples have such a blessing, sometimes there are spouses to whom the Creator did not grant the happiness of becoming parents.

At the birth of a girl, a loving mother from the first days of her birth in prayers blesses the offspring donated by the girl, sowing the fruits of the future kind in order to reap abundant offspring.

A mother's prayer for health and a desired pregnancy is capable of destroying the walls of a curse, the most terrible diagnoses of doctors about persistent infertility are collapsing under the influence of the power of the Holy Spirit and healing miracles granted through petitions from holy images.

As the girl grows older, the girls change the prayer requests of the dearest person, the mother. Prayer support protects a child from birth, it is especially strong at a time when, until recently, a little daughter is already preparing to become a mother herself.

A visit to the temple has a beneficial effect on the spiritual state of the expectant mother

Throughout her life, a mother prays for her child, her petitions change, expand. The mother puts her heart and all her hope in God in prayer:

• about health;
• about learning;
• about marriage;
• during pregnancy;
• about successful childbirth;
• about a happy family life;
• about the obedience of children.

Pregnancy is one of the most important life stages of every woman. During pregnancy, the expectant mother should limit herself from poor nutrition and eat only wholesome and healthy foods.

The same goes for the spiritual life. A non-idle woman (the church name for a pregnant woman) should limit herself from all sorts of heavy films, music and entertainment, nourishing her soul with useful reading and constant daily prayer.

Below we place prayers to the Lord and the Most Holy Theotokos, read by the wife during the days of pregnancy.

Prayers to the Lord God

Prayer one

AT almighty, miraculous, merciful God! The Creator and Preserver of heaven and earth and all creatures, Who Himself pronounced a blessing on all Christian spouses: grow and multiply! And again: this is the inheritance from the Lord: children, the fruit of the womb, a reward from Him. I thank Thee that You have made me a partaker of this blessing and Thy gift in my marital state, and I pray Thee, deign to bless the fruit of the womb that Thou hast given me, to bless and delight it with Thy Holy Spirit, to accept Thy beloved children among the number of Thy beloved ones and to make them partakers of St. of the sacraments of the Church of Thy beloved Son, my Lord Jesus Christ, so that through this he may be sanctified and cleansed from the poisonous infection of hereditary sin in which he was conceived. Lord God! I and the fruit of my womb are children of wrath by nature, but You, beloved Father, have mercy on us, and sprinkle the fruit of my womb with hyssop, so that it will be clean, wash it, and it will become whiter than snow. Strengthen and keep him in the womb until the hour when he should be born into the world. This fruit of my womb was not hidden from You, when it was formed in the womb, Your hands arranged it, You gave it life and breath, and may Your supervision preserve them. Save me from fear and fright and from evil spirits who would like to damage and crush the work of Your hands. Grant him a rational soul, and make sure that his body grows healthy and undefiled, with whole, healthy members, and when the time and hour come, resolve me by Your mercy. Grant me strength and strength for my birth, bless him with Your almighty help and ease my suffering, because this is Your work, the miraculous power of Your omnipotence, the work of Your mercy and mercy. Remember the word that You spoke: You took me out of the womb; I am devoted to You from birth; from my mother's womb You are my God; You gave me rest at my mother's breast. You are the God who knows and sees the needs of all people; You said: A woman, when she gives birth, suffers grief, because her hour has come.

G Lord! For the sake of this heartfelt compassion of Yours and for the sake of Your pity-filled heart, I beseech You, deign to relieve my sorrow, which You foresaw, and bring forth the fruit of my womb, with a healthy, living body and intact, well-formed members. I entrust him to you, into your almighty, fatherly hands, in your mercy and mercy, and I place him, Lord Jesus Christ, in your holy arms, bless this fruit of my womb, as you blessed the children brought to you when you spoke : "Let the children in and do not prevent them from coming to me, for such is the kingdom of heaven."

FROM shepherd! Thus I bring to Thee also this fruit of my womb; lay your graceful hand upon him. Bless him with the finger of Your Holy Spirit and bless him when he comes into this world with holy, blessed baptism; sanctify and renew him to eternal life through rebirth, make him also a member of your holy body and your holy Christian church, so that praise to you is pronounced from his lips, and he is and remains forever a child and heir of eternal life, through the holy, Your bitter suffering and Your death and Your holy name, Jesus Christ. Amen.

Prayer two

G Lord Jesus Christ our God, from the eternal Father, born to the Son before the age, and in the last days, with the goodwill and assistance of the Holy Spirit, deigning to be born from the Blessed Virgin like a baby, a baby, a baby, and a manger, the Lord himself, in the beginning creating a man and a wife of conjugation him, giving them a commandment: grow and multiply and fill the earth, have mercy on me, according to the great mercy of Your servant (name), who is preparing to give birth according to Your commandment. Forgive me my voluntary and involuntary sins, by Your grace, grant me the strength to safely get rid of my burden, keep me and the baby in health and goodness, protect Your angels and save me from the hostile actions of evil spirits, and from all kinds of evil things. Amen.

Prayer three

AT Almighty God, Creator of all things visible and invisible! We resort to You, beloved Father, endowed with the mind of creation, because You, on Your own advice, created our race, having created our body from the earth with indescribable wisdom and breathing into it the soul from Your Spirit, so that we would be Your likeness. And although it was in Your will to create us immediately, like angels, if only You wanted, but Your Wisdom was pleased that through husband and wife, in Your established order of marriage, the human race multiplied; You wanted to bless people so that they grow and multiply and fill not only the earth, but also the angelic hosts. O God and Father, may Your name be forever glorified and glorified for all that You have done for us! I also thank You for Your mercy, that not only I, according to Your will, came from Your wonderful creation and fill the number of the elect, but that You honored me to bless in marriage and sent me the fruit of the womb. This is Your gift, Your Divine mercy, O Lord and Father of spirit and body! Therefore, I turn to You alone and pray to You with a humble heart for mercy and help, so that what You do in me by Your power will be preserved and brought to a prosperous birth. For I know, O God, that it is not in the power and power of man to choose his own path; we are too weak and prone to fall to bypass all those networks that the evil spirit sets up for us at Your will, and to avoid those misfortunes into which our frivolity plunges us. Your wisdom is limitless. Whom You wish, You will save unscathed through Your Angel from every misfortune. Therefore, I, the Merciful Father, commit myself in my sorrow into Your hands and pray that You look at me with the eye of mercy and save me from all suffering. Send me and my dear husband joy, O God, Lord of all joy! So that we, at the sight of Your blessing, worship You with all our heart and serve with a joyful spirit. I do not want to be removed from what You imposed on our entire race, commanding to give birth to children in illnesses. But I humbly ask You to help me endure suffering and send a prosperous outcome.

At Hear, Merciful God, the prayer of Your last servant, fulfill the prayer of our heart, for the sake of Jesus Christ, our Savior, Who became incarnate for us, now abides with You and the Holy Spirit and rules in eternity. Amen.

Prayerful sighs of a wife during pregnancy to the Most Holy Theotokos

O, Glorious Mother of God, have mercy on me, Thy servant, and come to my aid during my illnesses and dangers, with which all the poor daughters of Eve give birth. Remember, O Blessed One in women, with what joy and love You went hastily to a mountainous country to visit Your relative Elizabeth during her pregnancy, and what a wonderful effect Your blessed visit had in both mother and baby. And according to Thy inexhaustible mercy, grant me, Thy most humble servant, to be relieved of the burden safely; grant me this grace so that the child, now resting under my heart, having come to his senses, with joyful leaping, like the holy baby John, worships the Divine Lord the Savior, who, out of love for us sinners, did not disdain himself to become a baby. The unexpressed joy that filled Your virgin heart when looking at Your newborn Son and Lord, may it alleviate the sorrow that is coming to me amid the illnesses of birth. May the life of the world, my Savior, born of Thee, save me from death, which cuts off the lives of many mothers at the hour of resolution, and may the fruit of my womb be counted among the elect of God. Hear, Most Holy Queen of Heaven, my humble prayer and look down on me, a poor sinner, with Your eye of grace; do not shame my hope in Your great mercy and fall on me. Helper of Christians, Healer of illnesses, may I also be able to experience for myself that You are the Mother of Mercy, and may I always glorify Your grace, which has never rejected the prayers of the poor and delivers all those who call on You during sorrow and illness. Amen.

Good afternoon! Tell me, two months have passed since the birth and I would like to visit the temple. What about the permissive prayer: can I come to the service, defend it and go to the priest for this prayer? Or can I not enter the temple until this prayer is read? How to do it right?

1. Hello Ekaterina!
   Yes, you can come to the temple, defend the service and then go to the priest for this prayer, but do not venerate the holy icons and the cross yet. They came to the temple, stood aside, prayed, defended the service, and then approached the priest. There is a practice in many churches to confess before the service, or if there are several priests, then during the service, then you can go to confession and tell the priest, he may read these prayers to you right away and at the same time you can repent of sins and take communion.
   Peace be upon you and God's blessing!
