33.母盛子衰胎前病, 母衰子盛产后殃, 子母平和无衰盛, 坦然分娩
不须忙.
【注】此言观孕妇与所怀之胎, 有盛衰之辨也. 若娠母气血壮盛, 而
胎元弱者, 胎前必多病; 若孕妇衰弱而胎元壮实, 则产后其母必多病
;若子母俱和平无偏盛偏衰, 则胎前产后均平安无疾, 可坦然无忧也
.
34.胎前有余详不足, 产后不足审有余, 产后惟多亏损病, 胎前子母
盛衰知.
【注】古云: 胎前无不足, 产后无有余, 此言其常也. 然胎前虽多有
余之证, 亦当详察其亦有不足之时; 产后虽多不足之病, 亦当详审其
每挟有余之证也. 欲知产后常多亏损之故, 于胎前子母盛衰求之, 可
预知也.

33. 母体强盛而胎儿虚弱,是胎前(怀孕期间)的疾病;母体衰弱而胎儿强盛,是产后(分娩后)的祸殃。若母子双方平和,没有偏盛或偏衰的情况,则分娩时坦然无忧,不必惊慌忙碌。
【注】这里说的是观察孕妇与所怀之胎,有强盛与虚弱的区别。如果妊娠母亲气血壮盛,而胎元(胎儿的生命根基)虚弱,那么在胎前必然多病;如果孕妇身体衰弱而胎元壮实,那么产后其母必然多病;如果子母都平和,没有偏盛或偏衰,那么胎前产后均平安无疾,可以坦然无忧。
34. 胎前(怀孕期)多见有余(实证),但也需详察不足(虚证);产后多见不足(虚证),但也需审慎辨别是否夹杂有余(实证)。产后之所以多为亏损之病,是因为胎前子母的盛衰情况不同所致,由此可预先知晓。
【注】古语说:胎前没有不足,产后没有有余,这是指一般规律。然而胎前虽然多有有余的证候,也应当详细考察其也有不足的时候;产后虽然多为不足的病证,也应当详细审查其每兼夹有余的证候。想要知道产后常多亏损的缘故,应从胎前子母的盛衰中去探求,就可以预先知道了。

33. When the mother is strong and the fetus is weak, it constitutes a disease during pregnancy (Taiqian); when the mother is weak and the fetus is strong, it brings misfortune postpartum (Chanhou). If both mother and fetus are in harmony, without excess or deficiency, delivery can be calm and worry-free, requiring no panic or haste.
[Note] This passage discusses distinguishing between excess and deficiency in the pregnant woman and the fetus she carries. If the pregnant mother has robust Qi and Blood but the fetal root (Taiyuan) is weak, there will likely be many illnesses during pregnancy; if the pregnant woman is frail but the fetal root is robust, the mother will likely suffer from many illnesses postpartum; if both mother and fetus are balanced, with neither excess nor deficiency, they will remain healthy and safe before and after delivery, allowing for peace of mind.
34. During pregnancy, conditions are predominantly Excess (Youyu), yet one must carefully examine for Deficiency (Buzu); postpartum, conditions are predominantly Deficiency, yet one must prudently assess whether Excess syndromes are present. The reason why postpartum conditions are often characterized by depletion lies in the varying states of excess and deficiency of the mother and fetus during pregnancy, which allows for prediction.
[Note] Ancient texts state: "There is no deficiency in pregnancy, and no excess postpartum," referring to general patterns. However, although pregnancy often presents with Excess syndromes, one must carefully observe instances of Deficiency; although postpartum conditions are mostly Deficient, one must carefully scrutinize cases where Excess syndromes coexist. To understand why postpartum conditions frequently involve depletion, one should investigate the excess/deficiency dynamics of the mother and fetus during pregnancy to predict outcomes.
