〔催生丹〕 难产及横生倒产不下者，车前子（研末二钱），酒调服即下，不饮酒者，水调服。（按：车前甘寒无毒，治妇人难产，利小便而不走气，即连进二三，亦无妨。）黄蜀葵花焙研为末，温酒或白汤调服二钱。如胎脏干涩难产者，连进三服即下。如无花用子半合研末温酒下。（按：蜀葵性滑，甘寒无毒，催生服之，能令腹中气宽，胎滑即下也。）益母草煎汤当茶吃易生。小虎刺根捣烂，好酒一盏冲服即下。乳香（炙去油为末），以猪心血丸，桐子大，朱砂为衣，阴干，每服二丸，温酒下。荷花瓣上书人字，嚼而吞之即下。凡一切催生丹不宜早服，如胞浆不下，只宜稳守，须俟胞浆破后一二时，再迟则力乏干涩愈难下，急宜服之。如加味芎归汤，佛手散，皆催生之妙品，即早服之亦无妨。催生不须奇药，活血滑胎，如水推船矣。
〔难产〕 胞浆先干，胎涩不下，用此最效。药材包括：滑石（水飞过一两）、白蜜、麻油（各半盏），先将蜜油慢火熬熟，去沫调滑石顿服，外以油调涂产妇脐腹，上下摩之立效。
〔难产灸法〕 米粒大艾丸，灸右脚小末趾三五壮，即下。
〔盘肠生〕 慎勿惊忙，从容产毕。剪去产妇头顶心发少许，用蓖麻子四十九粒（去壳去衣捣烂）涂顶心，肠即入，将入完即洗去迟则有害。或用半夏末少许，入鼻中，得嚏肠自上。或盛以洁净漆过木盆内浓煎黄芪汤，得温浸之即入。
〔胎衣不下〕 令产妇将自己头发稍搅入喉中，恶心即下，此法亦治难产。吞生鸡蛋清一枚亦下。取产母鞋底烘热，熨小腹上下十四次即下。蓖麻子仁一两，研烂贴产母右足心，胎衣下后须速去之，迟恐肠出。（即肠出仍以此膏贴头顶心即收。）
〔产后血晕〕 恶血上冲，不知人事者，须先以两手提起产妇头发勿放倒，如放倒恐血攻心则不救。急以韭菜一把切碎，先放入有嘴壶瓶内，再用米醋煮滚，冲入瓶内，上扎瓶口，以壶嘴出醋气熏病患口鼻间，或以少许涂妇手鼻，安定后然后放手，以荆芥穗六分（炒黑研细），热童便调灌下即苏。即一时无药，单用热童便灌下可救。如去血过多，时时发晕者，用当归五钱，川芎三钱，水煎服。
〔预防发晕〕 置好醋于床头，用烧红栗炭盆内，常以米醋洒上，令房中常有醋气，或时焚旧漆器，皆妙法也。产后用莲蓬蒂十数枚，毛米一合，清水煎一杯，和童便一杯服之，好……
〔产后烦闷〕 恶血未尽，上奔冲心，致烦闷腹痛者，藕（捣烂取汁），温服一二盏即效。恶露未尽之时，儿枕腹痛，用山楂肉百个打碎煎汤，入砂糖和成膏，好酒冲服三钱，催下败血即安。恶血不尽心痛，荷叶，炒香为末，童便或白汤调服。
〔产后血淤〕 恶露不行而兼腹痛者，蒲黄（五钱微炒），水煎服。（按本草蒲黄甘平无毒，能运血活血，止心腹诸痛。）产后一二两皆可服。淤血上攻痛而兼胀，手不可近，心胸满喘命在须臾者，用没药（箬上炙去油）、血竭（各一钱研细），童便和酒调服。（按本草没药味苦平无毒，能散血定痛，血竭甘平无毒，能散滞血，止痛，补心胞络。）

[Sanguinary Dysuria] Take 1 jin of Daylily (Jinzhencai), boil lightly in water daily, consume several taels as desired, and it will heal itself.

Nursing mothers eating sesame oil (ground, not aged) can ensure healthy infants.
[Labor Onset]**]** Near term, sudden abdominal pain resembling labor but not delivering is called "Trial Month". Severe abdominal pain radiating to the lower back indicates true labor. Pinch the proximal phalanx of the mother's middle finger; if it throbs, labor is imminent. At the first sign, conserve energy, stay calm, do not exert force prematurely to avoid exhaustion or malposition. Key principles: 1. Sleep, 2. Endure pain, 3. Delay pushing. Do not panic. If malposition occurs, lie supine to widen the abdomen, allowing the fetus to turn. The midwife should manually guide the fetus. If the fetus reaches the birth canal, joints loosen, chest sinks, lower abdomen feels heavy, urge to defecate/urinate arises, and golden flashes appear in eyes. This is the right time. Push once, and the baby is born safely.
[Jia Wei Xiong Gui Tang]**]** Treats failure of the pubic symphysis to open, preventing delivery. Ingredients: Whole Angelicae Sinensis Radix (Quandanggui) (1 liang), Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma (Chuanxiong) (7 qian), Cinis Capillis (Xueyuhui) (3 qian), Testudinis et Chelydrae Carapax et Plastrum (Guiban) (size of hand, vinegar-roasted, crushed). Decoct 2 bowls of water to 1 bowl. Take. Delivery occurs within the time it takes to walk five li. For breech or transverse presentation, take urgently, rest, and manually guide limbs back in. Sleep overnight, natural delivery follows. For prolonged labor (1-2 days), take this formula, push manually, rest, breathe calmly, and deliver naturally. In summer heat, take Liu Yi San (Turbinatis Lapillus 6 qian, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma 1 qian) mixed with cold boiling water (3 qian). Do not use if not due to extreme heat.
[Cui Sheng Dan (Labor Inducing Pills)**]** For difficult labor, breech, or transverse presentation: Semen Plantaginis (Cheqianzi) ground (2 qian), take with wine (or water if non-drinker). (Note: Cheqian is sweet, cold, non-toxic, promotes urination without depleting Qi; safe even in repeated doses.) Huangshukui Hua (Abutilonis Indici Flos) roasted and ground, take 2 qian with warm wine or plain water. For dry uterus causing difficult labor, take three doses consecutively. If no flowers, use seeds (0.5 he) ground, take with warm wine. (Note: Shukui is slippery, sweet, cold, non-toxic; widens abdominal Qi, lubricates fetus for easy delivery.) Leonuri Herba (Yimucao) decocted as tea facilitates birth. Smilacis Radix (Xiaohuci) root mashed,冲 with one cup of good wine, take to deliver. Frankincense (Ruxiang) de-oiled, ground, made into pills with pig heart blood, sized like paulownia seeds, coated with Cinnabar (Zhusha), dried in shade. Take 2 pills with warm wine. Chew lotus petals inscribed with the character "Ren" and swallow to deliver. Generally, labor-inducing pills should not be taken too early. If amniotic fluid has not broken, wait 1-2 hours after rupture, then take urgently as strength fails and dryness increases. Jia Wei Xiong Gui Tang and Fo Shou San are excellent for induction; early use is harmless. Labor induction does not require rare drugs; moving blood and lubricating the fetus is like pushing a boat with water.
[Difficult Labor]**]** For dry amniotic fluid and sticky fetus: Huashi (Turbinatis Lapillus) (water-washed, 1 liang), White Honey (Baimi), Sesamum Indicum Oleum (Mayou) (half bowl each).

[Moxibustion for Difficult Labor]**]** Apply moxa cones the size of rice grains to the fifth toe of the right foot, 3-5 sessions. Delivery follows.
[Prolapsed Intestine at Birth]**]** Stay calm. Cut a small amount of hair from the vertex. Mash 49 castor seeds (Ricini Semen) (peeled and skin removed), apply to the vertex. Intestine retracts. Wash off immediately after retraction; delay is harmful. Alternatively, insufflate a little Pinelliae Rhizoma Preparatum (Banxia) powder into the nose to induce sneezing, retracting the intestine. Or, immerse the area in warm decoction of Astragali Radix (Huangqi) in a clean lacquered wooden basin.
[Retained Placenta]**]** Have the mother stir her own hair slightly into the throat to induce nausea, expelling the placenta. Also treats difficult labor. Swallow one raw egg white. Heat the mother's shoe sole, apply to lower abdomen up and down 14 times to expel. Mash 1 liang of Castoris Semen (Bimazi Ren), apply to the sole of the mother's right foot. Remove quickly after placenta delivery to prevent intestinal prolapse. (If intestine prolapses, apply this paste to the vertex to retract it.)
[Postpartum Syncope]**]** For blood rush causing unconsciousness, lift the mother's hair with both hands and do not let her fall flat to prevent blood attacking the heart. Quickly chop one bunch of Chinese Chive (Jiucai), put in a spouted pot, boil rice vinegar, pour into pot, seal top, and inhale vinegar fumes through the spout into the patient's mouth/nose. Or apply a little to hands/nose. Release hair only after stabilization. Take 6 fen of Schizonepetae Spica (Jingjiesui) (charred black, ground fine), mix with hot child's urine,灌 (force feed) to restore consciousness. If no medicine available, hot child's urine alone can save. For excessive blood loss causing frequent dizziness, take Angelicae Sinensis Radix (Danggui) (5 qian), Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma (Chuanxiong) (3 qian), decoct in water and take.
[Preventing Syncope]**]** Place good vinegar by the bed. Put red-hot charcoal in a basin, sprinkle rice vinegar occasionally to maintain vinegar aroma in the room. Burning old lacquerware is also effective. Postpartum, take 10+ Lotus Calyx Tips (Lianpengdi), 1 he of Mao Mi, decoct in clear water to one cup, mix with one cup of child's urine and take. Good...
[Postpartum Oppression]**]** For residual evil blood rushing to the heart causing oppression and abdominal pain, crush Lotus Root (Ou), extract juice, drink 1-2 cups warm for effect. During lochia retention, for "Child Pillow" abdominal pain, crush 100 Hawthorn Flesh (Shanzharon), decoct in water, mix with rock sugar into paste,冲 with good wine, take 3 qian to expel bad blood and relieve pain. For heart pain due to incomplete expulsion of evil blood, stir-fry Lotus Leaf (Heye) until fragrant, grind into powder, take with child's urine or plain water.
[Postpartum Blood Stasis]**]** For lochia retention with abdominal pain, stir-fry Polygoni Cuspidati Rhizoma (Puhuang) lightly (5 qian), decoct in water and take. (Note: Puhuang is sweet, neutral, non-toxic, moves blood, relieves heart/abdominal pain.) Safe for postpartum use. For blood stasis attacking upward causing pain, distension, touch sensitivity, chest fullness, panting, and imminent death: use Myrrha (Moyao) (roasted on bamboo leaf, de-oiled) and Dragon's Blood (Xuexie) (1 qian each, ground fine), mix with child's urine and wine. (Note: Moyao is bitter, neutral, non-toxic, disperses blood, stops pain. Xuexie is sweet, neutral, non-toxic, disperses stagnant blood, stops pain, tonifies Heart Pericardium collaterals.)
[Uterine Prolapse]**]** For postpartum external prolapse, take Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang (see earlier formula), add vinegar-stir-fried Paeoniae Radix Alba (Baishao). Externally decoct Astragali Radix (Huangqi)...
