St. Gerad
Yesterday I was sitting in my office and a coworker came in to see me. She lost her first baby (stillbirth at term) years ago and then went on the have two more babies that are now teenagers. I didn't know this had happened to her until I lost Nicole and she wrote me a note about how she knew what I was going through etc if I needed someone to talk to.
Anyway, yesterday she came to me with a little box and inside was a medal of St. Gerad, the Patron Saint of Motherhood. Her mother had given her the medal when she lost her baby and then she wore it around her neck through her subsequent pregnancies (both difficult ones). She said she could feel the protection, like someone was there. She had thought she had lost it, but then found it in her jewelery box a few months ago and knew she had to give it to me when the time was right. I guess that was when I was pg again! I was so touched. How thoughtful. I bawled. I am wearing it now and hopefully St. Gerad will watch over me and our new little guy.
Jenn

Thats so nice Jenn, what a wonderful caring thing for her to do and an awsome sign for you. I'm sure St Gerard isn't the only one watching over your wee man, he has his own guardian angel, his big sister

What a wonderful gift Jenn. You have a special friend there.
Like Manda, I too believe there is more than one person watching over you and your new little bubs.
Take care.
Claire

What a lovely thought!
Like the others have said - St Gerad isn't the only one watching
