My gastric ulcer & perforated intestine healed in 2011.i am pregnant now (2014.) can pressure on body during childbirth tear the healed ulcer tissues?

Ulcer: If you are completely healed, then it is not likely that your pregnancy would tear the healed ulcer area. Be sure your OB is aware of your previous ulcer troubles, and treats any gastric irritation that may occur with the pregnancy.
