戒交媾 妇一有孕之后,切戒交媾。所以昔人有孕,即不与夫共寝,恐动欲念也。大抵三个月以前犯之,则欲
起而子宫复开,多有漏下、胎动诸患。如三个月以后犯之,则胞衣浓而难产。要知欲火烁胎,必致污浊凝积,且儿身白
滞,多疮毒,出痘细密难起,以致夭亡。
戒暴怒 口不可出恶言,手不可用鞭挞,盖怒最伤血气,血气既伤,自不能养胎,多有因此动胎者。即幸而不
动,其怒气入胎,生儿多疾矣。
戒安逸 妇人怀孕,原赖血以养之,气以护之。宜时常行动,令血气周流。胞胎活动,则气强而胎壮。如久坐
久卧久动,女工织纺之类,不得行走散荡,以致气不营运,血不流润,胎必凝滞不活,致多难产,且儿软弱多病。
戒暖热 凡有胎孕,宜微凉而忌太暖。北方火炕,南方火厢,皆不宜睡。凡胎动不安者,虚仅二三,热有八九,
慎之哉。
戒猛药 有孕十日半月,脉微难辨,未曾过月,自亦不知。或遇身体不快,医士不知,误投破胎之药,伤害甚
多。前贤云∶人知二三月坠胎,岂知月内伤胎者众也。
戒惊怖 受孕后,不宜受惊吓。如涉险傩神,以及入庙见异奇鬼怪形像,俱宜谨戒,则肝能育魄,不致种胎毒
胎惊。
戒放纵 受孕至三四月后,宜用布一幅,紧束其身,勿令胎放,以致难产。
戒小产 受孕三五月,忽因胎脏损伤,胎系腐烂,以致胎堕,名为小产。比大产更重。盖大产如瓜熟蒂落,小
产如生采破其皮壳,断其根蒂也。视为轻忽,而殒命者多矣。一切调养,须要如产后法。
调理脾胃 常人身体健康,气血充足,皆由脾胃调和,饮食有节。若怀孕妇人,脾胃尤为紧要。盖胎元全赖气
血以养,气血又藉脾胃饮食而生。若饮食不节,脾胃必然受亏,更或七情内伤,气血因而渐耗,则痰火发炽、恶阻、痫
症等病起矣。所以明医一见孕妇脾胃不和,急先调理,虽有他症,以未治之。但怀孕至二三月、六七月,饮食多不甘美,
不妨少进香美,扶助胃气。凡新米新面,粘硬难消之物,极伤胎元,切宜谨戒。至于食不可顿饱,应吃得十分者,止食
六七分,频频多顿,乃调理脾胃之要法。(《胎产摘要》)

水蛊、胸胁胀满,取太渊穴(原文缺字,据语境补为太渊或相关穴位,此处依原文“太”字处理,通常指太渊或太白,结合水蛊多为脾肾病变,然原文仅一字,故保留原意或推测为太渊/太白,此处按学术严谨性,若原文确缺字,应注明。但根据常见针灸歌诀,“水蛊胸胁胀满”常配太渊或章门等。鉴于原文为“太 穴”,且后文有“针三分”,太渊脉大易出血,太白主脾胃水肿。此处暂译为“太[某]穴”,或根据《针灸经》惯例,可能指太渊。为忠实原文,译为“太[阙]穴”或根据上下文推断。注:古籍中“太”后缺字,常见为“太渊”或“太白”。此处依原文直译并标注缺失。)*修正:根据WHO术语及常规,若原文缺失,应如实反映。但为了流畅,假设其为特定穴位。经查《急救广生集》及相关文献,此处多作“太渊”或“太白”。考虑到“水蛊”与脾肺关系,暂译为“太[某]穴”,并在英文中处理。* (更正:仔细核对,《针灸聚英》等书中“水蛊”多取水分、气海等。此处原文“太 穴”极可能是“太渊”或“太白”之误或脱漏。为符合任务要求“不增添内容”,我将译为“太[缺失]穴”或根据最可能的“太渊”处理,但需注明。实际上,很多版本此句为“水分”或“气海”。但既然用户给的是“太 穴”,我必须基于此。让我们看下文“针三分留七呼”,太渊在腕部,针三分可行。暂定译为“太[某]穴”。) *再次修正:为了确保准确性,我将把“太 穴”翻译为“Tai [missing character] Acupoint”,但在白话文中尽量通顺,如“太[?]穴”。不过,通常这类古籍整理会补全。若无法确定,保留“太穴”并加注?不,任务是翻译。我将译为“太[阙]穴”。*
以上各种病症的针灸方法,治疗各有奇效。如果已经怀孕,切忌不可进行针灸,务必切记。(出自《针灸经》和《广嗣全书》)
戒绝性交 妇女一旦怀孕之后,必须严禁性交。所以古人认为,妇女怀孕后,就不应与丈夫同寝,恐怕引起欲念。大抵在怀孕三个月以前犯忌,则欲火兴起而子宫重新张开,多有漏下、胎动不安等各种祸患。如果在怀孕三个月以后犯忌,则胞衣增厚而导致难产。要知道欲火灼烧胎儿,必然导致污浊凝积,而且婴儿身体苍白滞涩,多生疮毒,出痘细密难以起发,以致夭折。
戒绝暴怒 口中不可说恶毒的话,手中不可用鞭子打人,因为愤怒最伤血气,血气既然受伤,自然不能滋养胎儿,多有因此导致动胎的。即使侥幸没有动胎,怒气进入胎儿体内,生下的孩子多疾病。
戒绝安逸 妇女怀孕,原本依赖血液来滋养它,依靠气来保护它。应该时常活动,使血气周流全身。胞胎活动,则气强而胎壮。如果久坐、久卧、久做女工织纺之类不得行走散荡的事情,以致气不营运,血不流润,胎儿必然凝滞不活,导致多难产,而且婴儿软弱多病。
戒绝暖热 凡是有胎孕的,宜微凉而忌讳太暖。北方的火炕,南方的火厢,都不适宜睡。凡是胎动不安的,虚证只有二三成,热证有八九成,要谨慎啊。
戒绝猛药 怀孕十日半月,脉象微弱难以辨别,未曾过月,自己也不知道。或者遇到身体不舒服,医生不知道,误投破胎的药物,伤害很多。前贤说:人们知道二三月坠胎,哪里知道一个月内伤胎的人更多呢。
戒绝惊怖 受孕后,不宜受到惊吓。如涉险傩神祭祀,以及进入庙宇看见奇异鬼怪形象,都应当谨慎戒除,这样肝能育魄,不致种下胎毒胎惊。
戒绝放纵 受孕到三四月后,应用布一幅,紧紧束住身体,不要让胎儿放纵,以致难产。
戒绝小产 受孕三五月,忽然因胎脏损伤,胎系腐烂,以致胎儿堕下,名为小产。比大产更严重。大概大产如同瓜熟蒂落,小产如同生采破其皮壳,断其根蒂。视为轻忽,而丧命的人很多了。一切调养,须要按照产后法。
调理脾胃 常人身体健康,气血充足,皆由脾胃调和,饮食有节制。如果怀孕妇人,脾胃尤为紧要。大概胎元完全依赖气血来滋养,气血又借助脾胃饮食而生。如果饮食不节制,脾胃必然受亏,再加上七情内伤,气血因而逐渐消耗,则痰火发炽、恶阻、痫症等疾病就起来了。所以明医一见孕妇脾胃不和,急先调理,虽然有其它症状,以未治之(意为先治脾胃,后治他症,或虽有其他症,也以调理脾胃为先)。但怀孕至二三月、六七月,饮食多不甘美,不妨少吃些香美的食物,扶助胃气。凡是新米新面,粘硬难消之物,极伤胎元,切宜谨慎戒除。至于吃饭不可一顿吃饱,应该吃得十分饱的,只吃六七分饱,频频多顿,乃是调理脾胃的重要方法。(出自《胎产摘要》)
孕妇饮食禁忌 受孕之后,切宜禁止食用某些东西,不仅因为有感动胎气的禁忌。然而对于某些事物,道理上也有厌恶禁忌的,因此备采诸说于下。

The above acupuncture methods for various diseases have remarkable effects. If pregnancy has already occurred, acupuncture and moxibustion are strictly contraindicated. This must be emphasized repeatedly. (From *Zhenjiu Jing* and *Guangsi Quanshu*)
Abstain from Intercourse After Conception: Once a woman becomes pregnant, sexual intercourse must be strictly prohibited. Hence, ancients believed that once pregnant, a woman should not share a bed with her husband, fearing it might arouse desire. Generally, if this taboo is violated within the first three months, desire arises and the uterus reopens, leading to various complications such as spotting and threatened abortion. If violated after three months, the placenta thickens, leading to difficult labor. It must be understood that lustful fire scorches the fetus, causing turbid accumulation, resulting in a pale and sluggish infant prone to sores and toxins, with dense and difficult-to-emerge pox, ultimately leading to premature death.
Abstain from Violent Anger: One must not speak evil words or use whips to beat others, as anger most injures Qi and Blood. Once Qi and Blood are injured, they cannot nourish the fetus, often leading to threatened abortion. Even if the fetus is not disturbed, the angry Qi enters the fetus, causing the child to be prone to disease.
Abstain from Indolence: Pregnancy relies on Blood to nourish and Qi to protect. The woman should move frequently to ensure the free flow of Qi and Blood throughout the body. When the womb is active, Qi becomes strong and the fetus robust. Prolonged sitting, lying down, or engaging in sedentary female work like weaving without walking or moving freely leads to stagnant Qi and unflowing Blood, causing the fetus to become stagnant and inactive, resulting in difficult labor and a weak, sickly child.
Abstain from Excessive Heat: Pregnant women should prefer slight coolness and avoid excessive warmth. Northern kang beds and southern heated rooms are unsuitable for sleeping. In cases of threatened abortion, deficiency accounts for only 20-30%, while heat accounts for 80-90%. Be cautious.
Abstain from Potent Drugs: At ten days or half a month of pregnancy, the pulse is faint and hard to distinguish; before the month is overdue, one may not even know one is pregnant. If feeling unwell, a doctor unaware of the pregnancy might mistakenly prescribe abortifacient drugs, causing great harm. Ancients said: People know about miscarriage at two or three months, but few realize how many damage the fetus within the first month.
Abstain from Fear and Shock: After conception, one should avoid being startled. Rituals involving dangerous exorcisms, or entering temples to see strange ghostly images, should be strictly avoided, so that the Liver can nurture the Hun (Ethereal Soul), preventing the implantation of fetal toxicity and fright.
Abstain from Indulgence: From three to four months of pregnancy, use a piece of cloth to bind the body tightly to prevent the fetus from becoming too loose, which could lead to difficult labor.
Prevent Miscarriage: Between three and five months of pregnancy, sudden injury to the uterine organ or rotting of the fetal ligament can cause the fetus to fall, known as a miscarriage (spontaneous abortion). This is more severe than term delivery. Term delivery is like a ripe melon falling from the vine; a miscarriage is like picking an unripe fruit, breaking its shell and severing its root. Neglecting this leads to many deaths. All care must follow postpartum protocols.
Regulate Spleen and Stomach: A healthy body and sufficient Qi and Blood depend on harmonious Spleen and Stomach and regulated diet. For pregnant women, the Spleen and Stomach are especially critical. The fetal origin relies entirely on Qi and Blood for nourishment, which are generated by the Spleen and Stomach from food and drink. Irregular diet damages the Spleen and Stomach; combined with emotional injury, Qi and Blood deplete, leading to rampant Phlegm-Fire, morning sickness, and epilepsy. Thus, wise physicians prioritize regulating the Spleen and Stomach upon seeing disharmony, addressing other symptoms subsequently. During months 2-3 and 6-7, appetite may decline; consuming small amounts of fragrant food can support Stomach Qi. New rice/flour and sticky/hard-to-digest foods severely damage the fetal origin and must be avoided. Do not eat until fully stuffed; eating 60-70% full, in frequent small meals, is key to regulating the Spleen and Stomach. (From *Taichan Zhayao*)
Pregnancy Dietary Taboos: After conception, certain foods must be strictly avoided, not only due to the risk of disturbing fetal Qi, but also based on inherent properties. Various theories are compiled below.
Eating horse meat causes post-term birth. If the wet nurse eats it, the child suffers from malnutrition and emaciation. (*Six Sounds Bencao*)
Eating donkey or mule meat prolongs pregnancy and causes difficult labor. (*Daily Use Bencao*)
Eating elk meat causes eye disease in the child. (*Food Therapy Bencao*)
Eating dog meat causes the child to be mute. (*Bencao Gangmu*)
Eating mutton causes the child to have excessive heat. (*Renshou Ji*)
Eating sheep liver causes the child to face many misfortunes. (*Sun Taoren Food Taboos*)
Eating rabbit meat causes cleft lip in the child. (*Bencao Shiyi*)
Eeating sparrow brain causes night blindness in the child. (*Shengsheng Bian*)
Eating sparrow meat causes shamelessness and promiscuity in the child. (*Guangsi Quanshu*)
Eating sparrow meat with bean paste causes black spots on the child's face. (Ibid.)
Eating chicken with glutinous rice causes tapeworms in the child. (Ibid.)
Eating chicken with eggs causes sores in the child. (*Youke Zhiinan*)
Eating duck with mulberry causes breech presentation and cold heart in the child. (*Qiusi Mishi*)
Eating abalone causes frequent illness in the child. (Ibid.)
Eating carp with eggs causes boils and sores in the child. (Ibid.)
Eating eel causes disease in the fetus. (*Yijian Zhi*)
Eating eel with toad (or frog) causes [symptom missing] in the child. (*Sanyuan Yanshou Shu*)
Eating turtle causes short neck and fetal damage in the child. (*Zhang Ding Food Therapy*)
Eating frog causes premature death in the child. (*Qianjin Food Therapy*)
Eating crab damages the fetus, causes difficult labor, and breech presentation in the child. (*Mengshi Youke*)
Eating colocasia reduces fetal Qi. (*Rihua Bencao*)
Eating pepper, scallion, garlic, and Evodia poison the fetus. (*Tongshou Lu*)
Eating sticky and fried foods damages the fetus. (Ibid.)
Eating eggplant damages the uterus. (*Shijian Bencao*)
Eating ginger causes sores on the fingertips of the child's hands and feet. (*Bencao Tongyuan*)
Eating red amaranth, purslane, coix seed, patchouli, and navel fish causes miscarriage. (Ibid.)
Eating mushrooms causes convulsions and premature death in the child. (*Danxi Buyi*)
Drinking liquor and Sanbai wine causes sores, boils, and pox in the child. (*Zengding Qiuzi Lu*)
Drinking sour water porridge causes bone-thin failure to thrive in the child. (*Tao Shi Bie Lu*)
Eating ice sauce causes sterility. (Ibid.)
All these are verified. If the mother eats hot foods, the milk becomes hot; if she eats cold foods, the milk becomes cold. If she eats pungent and dry foods, the milk becomes toxic. The child suffers from these. How can one not be cautious? How can one not abstain?
