Prayer for post delivery

Prayer for post delivery
Dear Lord, what an awesome God you are! How great are your works for me! Even 1000 tongues are not enough to praise you. You heard & answered every single prayer we uttered for delivery. Though I was weak, you proved yourself to be strong; very strong. You were so kind enough & provided many helpers to me inside the labor room right from the housekeeping staffs to the doctor. You gave them all the wisdom to decide right things while delivering the baby. You didn’t give me pain which was not bearable. You helped me through every single second and helped me come out of the labor room in victory. The baby you blessed me with is healthy. Everyone said she is a miracle. I know that you, the miracle working God, gave me this tiny bundle of joy because you love me, not because I deserved her.
Lord, now that you have placed this little one in my hands, I pray that, You be with me through all that I am going through. There are many suggestions that keep coming from every direction and from the internet searches, but they can’t outweigh your ways. Unless you safeguard, I can’t protect her. Lord, it is you, who started this beautiful journey. Help me, guide me and lead me into this brand new experience. There are moments when I have mixed emotions. Happiness, joy, contentment, cries, frustration and every emotion when I face ups and downs in this journey.
Lord, whenever I am frustrated, worried and afraid, please be with me and strengthen me. Let me not show negatives to my little one. She just trusts me now. Help me to be trustworthy. Help me realize what she needs and enable me to provide her all that she needs from me, may it be breastfeeding, comfort, love, affection, a simple touch or whatever! Lord, I also pray for every single sickness a baby is prone to, in this world. Heavenly lord, right from cold, flu, seasonal diseases, insects bites, until the scary SIDS, or any other disease, please protect my baby from all that. Let these never come near her tent. You please be with her all the time. She is an infant & she can’t express what exactly she is undergoing. But you are her creator, who created her fearfully and wonderfully and you can understand her and can provide, as you are Jehovah Jireh. Please help me fill her with breast milk whenever she needs a feed. Please do not let the situation to use unnecessary medicines come. Help me to be really thankful for what you have done in my life with this miraculous pregnancy, amazing delivery and this precious motherhood.
Lord, please bless this little one, her daddy, grandparents, relatives, friends and well-wishers, prayer buddies, & be with them all in that they do. Help me quickly recover from any pain or inconvenience I have post delivery. Let me not justify my intolerance and frustrations in the name of postpartum depression, as I know you are the Prince of Peace and as a Child of You, I also can be the daughter of peace and I need not undergo postpartum depression as the world does.
Lord, I surrender whoever that comes to visit the newborn. Please cover them & my baby under your wings so that they do not pass on any infection. Lord, let them all come with true and sincere heart to bless the baby. Let no evil eyes fall on the baby. Lord, I commit every unknown and unseen snares and ask you to protect the baby and the entire family from these. Lord, please give the baby the growth each day requires, and shower the baby with divine grace, perfect health and favor in the eyes of men. In Jesus’ matchless name, I pray, Amen.
