子悬乃胎气上逼，紧塞于胸次之间，胀满疼痛是也。有寒火之分，有肝气，有停饮，有火盛。心闷绝而死者，
方用紫苏饮连进以救之。

用二陈汤加竹沥、姜汁。虚实之间，宜察辨之。如不合法，即防胎落。大约肝经气逆者多，予常用紫苏饮加枳壳、钩藤

Zixuan (Fetal Distension) refers to fetal qi rushing upward, tightly obstructing the chest and diaphragm, manifesting as distension and pain. This condition is differentiated into cold and fire patterns, with etiologies involving Liver qi stagnation, retained fluid retention, or excessive fire. In cases where chest oppression leads to syncope or death, Zisu Yin (Perilla Stem Decoction) should be administered continuously for emergency rescue.
Zisu Yin (Perilla Stem Decoction)
Zisugeng (Stem of Perilla Frutescens), Dangguishen (Radix Angelicae Sinensis, root portion) (each 1 qian); Baishao (Radix Paeoniae Alba), Zhigancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata) (each 0.5 qian); Chuanxiong (Rhizoma Chuanxiong) (0.3 qian); Renshen (Radix Ginseng) (0.6 qian); Dafupi (Pericarpium Citri Grandis) (0.8 qian, washed with black soybean water); Sharen (Fructus Amomi Rotundus) (0.3 qian, husk removed).
Add one slice of Shengjiang (Rhizoma Zingiberis Recens) and one cun of Congbai (Bulbus Allii Cepae) to the above herbs, decoct in water, and take orally.
Zixuan (Fetal Vertigo/Syncope) manifests as syncope due to rebellious qi, also treated with Zisu Yin (Perilla Stem Decoction). However, if it involves Spleen deficiency with phlegm accumulation, Liujunzi Tang (Six Gentlemen Decoction) plus Tianma (Rhizoma Gastrodiae, 0.5 qian) is used. If Spleen deficiency is not severe, but merely stubborn phlegm obstruction exists, Erchen Tang (Two Aged Herbs Decoction) plus Zhuli (Nodus Bambusae in Taenia) and Jiangzhi (Succus Zingiberis Recens) is employed. One must carefully distinguish between excess and deficiency. Improper treatment may lead to miscarriage. Generally, this is mostly caused by rebellious qi in the Liver channel; I commonly use Zisu Yin (Perilla Stem Decoction) plus Zhike (Fructus Aurantii) and Gouteng (Ramulus Uncariae cum Uncis) to calm the fetus.

(Also known as Zimao)
When a pregnant woman has Blood deficiency and Wind pathogen invades the Liver, she suddenly becomes unconscious and disoriented, awakens after a moment, and relapses later. Prolonged occurrence transforms into Jing disease (Spasm). Jing disease presents with locked jaws, convulsions, and opisthotonos, resembling infantile convulsions. Lingyangjiao San (Antelope Horn Powder) is used to settle the spasms. If anger stirs up Liver fire, Xiaoyao San (Free and Easy Wanderer Powder) plus Renshen (Radix Ginseng, 0.5 qian) is added as an adjunct. If fetal qi is stirred and rebels upward, Zisu Yin (Perilla Stem Decoction) is added as an adjunct. For cases with concurrent Spleen deficiency and phlegm, Liujunzi Tang (Six Gentlemen Decoction) is added as an adjunct. If caused by Cold invading the Middle Jiao, Lizhong Tang (Regulate the Middle Decoction) plus Fangfeng (Radix Saposhnikoviae) and Gouteng (Ramulus Uncariae cum Uncis) is appropriate. This condition requires rapid treatment. Frequent, unceasing attacks not only cause sudden miscarriage but may also lead to dispersion of Blood, endangering the mother's life. If the fetus is expelled, urgent and substantial tonification of Qi and Blood is essential to save the mother; delay may make recovery impossible.
Lingyangjiao San (Antelope Horn Powder)
Lingyangjiao (Cornu Saigae Tataricae), Duhuo (Radix Angelicae Pubescentis), Danggui (Radix Angelicae Sinensis) (each 1 qian); Chuanxiong (Rhizoma Chuanxiong) (0.3 qian); Renshen (Radix Ginseng) (0.8 qian); Fushen (Poria cum Radix Pinelliae) (1.5 qian); Sangjisheng (Cacumen Taxilli) (2 qian); Gouteng (Ramulus Uncariae cum Uncis) (3 qian); Fangfeng (Radix Saposhnikoviae) (0.7 qian); Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae) (0.5 qian).
Add Shengjiang (Rhizoma Zingiberis Recens) or Zhuli (Nodus Bambusae in Taenia), decoct in water, and take orally.
Lizhong Tang (Regulate the Middle Decoction)
Baizhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae) (2 qian); Zhigancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata) (0.5 qian); Ganjiang (Rhizoma Zingiberis Secatum) (1 liang).
Decoct in water and take orally; adding Renshen (Radix Ginseng) is even better.
