Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I found this article very interesting so thought I'd share. I have to admit, with my last two labours, I found it helpful to be reciting the Rosary - took my mind off the pain although I am sure I got a few odd looks from the nursing staff.

I do too though to be honest it often becomes a long string of Hail Mary's with the occasional Our Father and Glory Be because I just say the 1st thing that pops into my mind as the contractions increase    Annie
