一、脐腹部急剧疼痛；二、腰部沉重下坠感；三、眼中感觉如火冒出；四、肛门紧迫急迫；五、产道肿胀满闷；六、手中指筋脉跳动；七、胞衣水或血液同时下行。以上七种征象出现，才是胎儿即将娩出胞宫的时机，此时才可以用力分娩。如果上述症状尚未备齐，即使腹痛持续一二日，也切不可强行努挣用力。又有胞衣水已经流出，胎儿头部已到达产门，但三四天仍不能娩出的情况，这是因为产妇元气先已虚弱。此时人参是专攻补益无力者的良药，可使用大剂量的八珍汤送服白凤丸两粒，以补益其元气，调理饮食，待时机成熟自然分娩。
产后上床休息时，枕头宜高，背部要有靠垫，不要平躺睡下。眉批：分娩之后，要坐靠约两个时辰，然后才能高枕而卧，这样可以避免血晕。膝盖宜竖起，脚后跟下方可放置一只箱子，使腿部不要伸直。随即饮用一杯热童便（童子尿），只宜闭口静养，旁边需加倍小心看护一人，轻轻时常与产妇说话，不可让其熟睡，恐怕极度疲倦后熟睡，导致气血上壅，从而引发眩晕。不宜高声疾呼，以免引起惊恐。四周墙壁宜遮挡风邪，如果没有其他病痛，只需服用生化汤，不必另外服用其他药物。
产后宜使用铁秤锤，或者将钉子或石子烧红后投入醋中，让醋气熏鼻，以避免血晕，且能收敛神气，又能解秽气，每日三四次，三天后停止。
产后七日内，若未服用生化汤，恶露块痛未除，可补服生化汤以清除病源。如果是三日内，已经服用生化汤二三帖，恶露块痛仍然未除，仍可再服用几帖，其恶露块痛自然会消除。
产后七日内，不可轻易使用人参、白术、黄芪，恐怕导致恶露块痛不止。如果气血虚脱，汗多晕厥，或气喘急促，脉搏微弱欲绝，都是危急重症，也必须权变处理，多用参附类方药配合生化汤来抢救。如服药后病情有生机，又应当减去人参、附子等温补之品，只服用生化汤，以消除恶露块痛。恶露块痛停止后，再用参、术、芪等补气药。产后腹中时常用小衣物烘热温暖腹部，即使在暑月，下身也适宜盖单被。若是冬季，长时间用火炉烘烤被窝内部，否则腹部受寒会导致血块不行作痛。
产妇七日内，不要清洗下部私处，不要梳头，不要从事体力劳动，不要早起以免冒犯风寒，不要行走以扰动筋骨，到第八天以后，可用温水坐洗下部，但须紧紧防止产门进风。
一个月内不要多说话并劳累，女工活计不要用凉水洗手足，即使是温水也宜少洗，不要惊恐，不要动怒。双满月内禁止房事、动欲火以及过度劳神，触犯这些禁忌则无药可治。若能忌口至一百二十天，则终身少病。至于饮食比怀孕前更应知道禁忌，不要吃厚重浑浊的食物。因为新产之后，脾胃非常虚弱，必定难以消化，恐怕阻滞经络，导致气血不通。不要吃过于热的食物，使新血不得安宁。不要吃凉的食物，使血块凝滞。不要吃消导耗散的药物或食物，以损伤真气。不要多喝酒，多吃盐味，以免烧干乳汁。至于生男生女，是丈夫的命运所招致，与妇人无关，只宜宽慰，切不可在旁边叹息，令产妇气苦，致病伤身。又有一种凶残之人，将女婴溺死，忍心害理，必有惨报。
1. Acute pain in the umbilical and abdominal region; 2. Heavy bearing-down sensation in the lower back; 3. Sensation of fire emerging from the eyes; 4. Urgency and tightness at the anus; 5. Swelling and fullness of the vaginal orifice (Chanhu); 6. Twitching of the tendons and vessels in the middle finger of the hand; 7. Simultaneous discharge of amniotic fluid or blood. Only when these seven signs are present is it the time for the fetus to exit the uterus (Baogong), and only then can one exert effort for delivery. If these symptoms are not yet complete, even if abdominal pain persists for one or two days, one must absolutely not strain or push forcefully. In cases where amniotic fluid has already discharged and the fetal head has reached the birth canal but remains undelivered after three or four days, it is due to the mother's Qi being deficient beforehand. In such instances, Renshen (Ginseng Radix) is specifically effective for those with weakness; a large dose of Bazhen Tang (Eight-Treasure Decoction) should be used to deliver two pills of Baifeng Wan (White Phoenix Pill) to tonify Yuan Qi (Primal Qi), regulate diet, and allow natural delivery when the time is ripe.
When getting into bed postpartum, the pillow should be high and there should be back support; do not lie flat. Commentary: After delivery, one should sit upright and lean for about two Shichen (four hours) before sleeping with a high pillow, which can prevent Blood Dizziness (Xueyun). The knees should be bent upward, and a box may be placed under the heels to prevent the legs from extending straight. Immediately drink a cup of hot Tongbian (Child Urine). One should keep the mouth closed and rest quietly. An extra person should attend closely, speaking gently to the parturient occasionally, ensuring she does not fall into deep sleep. Extreme fatigue followed by deep sleep may cause Qi and Blood to congest upwards, leading to dizziness. Loud shouting should be avoided to prevent fright. The walls around should be shielded from wind. If there are no other ailments, only Huasheng Tang (Transformation of Stasis Decoction) should be taken; no other medicines are necessary.
Postpartum, an iron scale weight, or nails/stones heated red-hot and quenched in vinegar, should be used so that the vinegar vapor enters the nose. This prevents Blood Dizziness, helps to consolidate Shen (Spirit), and resolves foul odors. Apply this method three to four times daily for three days, then stop.
Within seven days postpartum, if Huasheng Tang has not been taken and uterine lochia pain (Kuai Tong) persists, Huasheng Tang should be supplemented to clear the source. If within three days, two or three doses of Huasheng Tang have been taken but Kuai Tong remains, additional doses may still be administered until the pain subsides naturally.
Within seven days postpartum, Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix), Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma), and Huangqi (Astragali Radix) should not be used lightly, lest they cause lochia stasis pain to persist. However, if there is Qi and Blood collapse, profuse sweating, syncope, panting, or a faint pulse, these are critical conditions requiring emergency intervention. In such cases, one must adapt and use larger amounts of Ren Shen and Fuzi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata) combined with Huasheng Tang to rescue the patient. If the condition improves after medication, reduce the dosage of Ren Shen and Fuzi, continuing only with Huasheng Tang to resolve stasis. Once Kuai Tong ceases, resume using Ren Shen, Baizhu, and Huangqi. Keep the abdomen warm by heating small garments and applying them to the belly; even in summer, a single blanket should cover the lower body. In winter, use a stove to heat the bedding thoroughly; otherwise, cold abdomen will lead to blood stasis and pain.
For seven days postpartum, do not wash the perineum, do not comb hair, do not engage in strenuous labor, do not rise early to avoid wind-cold invasion, and do not walk to avoid disturbing sinews and bones. After the eighth day, warm water may be used for sitting baths of the perineum, but care must be taken to prevent wind from entering the vaginal orifice.
Within one month, avoid excessive talking and labor. Female workers should not use cold water to wash hands and feet; even warm water should be used sparingly. Avoid fright and anger. During the double-full-month period (two months), abstain from sexual intercourse, desire/fire, and excessive mental labor. Violating these prohibitions renders treatment ineffective. If abstinence is maintained for 120 days, illness will be rare throughout life. Dietary restrictions are even more critical than during pregnancy. Avoid heavy, turbid foods because the Spleen and Stomach are greatly deficient postpartum and cannot digest them easily, risking blockage of meridians and stagnation of Qi and Blood. Avoid overly hot foods to prevent disturbance of new blood. Avoid cold foods to prevent blood stasis. Avoid digestive and dispersing agents that damage True Qi. Avoid excessive alcohol and salt intake, which can dry up breast milk. Regarding the gender of the baby, it is determined by the husband's destiny and irrelevant to the woman; one should offer comfort and never sigh nearby, causing the mother distress and potential harm. Furthermore, cruel individuals who drown female infants act against humanity and reason, and will surely face severe retribution.
