Blessing of an Expectant Mother
A blessing for a mother during pregnancy, asking protection for her and for her unborn child.
God our Father, source of all life,
you have blessed this mother with the gift of new life.
Watch over her in the months of waiting,
strengthen her in body and spirit,
and bring her safely to the hour of birth.
Bless the child she carries,
that this little one may be born in health
and reborn in the waters of baptism.
Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
