妊娠九月始受石，精以成皮毛，六腑百节莫不毕备。饮醴食甘，缓带自持而待之，是谓养毛发、致才力。
妊娠九月，足少阴脉养，不可针灸其经。足少阴内属于肾，肾主续缕。九月之时，儿脉续缕皆成。无处湿
冷，无着炙衣。
妊娠九月，若卒得下痢，腹满悬急，胎上冲心，腰背痛不可转侧，短气，半夏汤。
半夏汤
半夏（汤泡七次，以生姜二两淹一宿） 麦门冬（汤浸，去心，焙。各五两） 当归（去芦须，切片子，
焙） 吴茱萸（拣净，汤泡，洗三、二次，焙） 阿胶（用蛤粉炒。各三两） 干姜（一两，炮烈） 大枣
（十二枚，去核）
上七味 咀，以水九升煮取三升，去滓，纳白蜜八合，微火上温，分四服，痢即止。一方用乌雌鸡一只煮
汁煎药。
若曾伤九月胎者，当预服猪石汤。
猪石汤
猪石（一具，剥去筋膜，洗净） 白术（四两，去芦，切，焙） 茯苓（去黑皮） 桑寄生（拣净）
妊娠第九个月开始，胎儿的皮毛逐渐形成，六腑和全身关节无不具备。此时应饮用甜酒、食用甘美食物，松开腰带，从容自持以等待分娩，这叫做养护毛发、积蓄才力。
妊娠第九个月，由足少阴肾经滋养胎儿，不可对该经脉进行针灸治疗。足少阴肾经内属于肾脏，肾主管筋脉的连结。到了第九个月，胎儿的筋脉连结都已长成。不要居住在潮湿寒冷的地方，也不要穿着经过火烤热的衣服。
妊娠第九个月，如果突然患上腹泻痢疾，腹部胀满且拘急疼痛，胎气上冲至心胸，腰背疼痛导致身体无法转动，呼吸短促，可用半夏汤治疗。
半夏汤
半夏（用热水浸泡七次，用生姜二两腌制一夜） 麦门冬（用热水浸泡，去除心部，焙干。各五两） 当归（去除芦头和须根，切片，焙干） 吴茱萸（拣选干净，用热水浸泡，清洗三到四次，焙干） 阿胶（用蛤粉炒制。各三两） 干姜（一两，炮制至焦烈） 大枣（十二枚，去核）
以上七味药，捣碎，用水九升煮取三升药液，去掉药渣，加入八合白蜜，在微火上温热，分四次服用，痢疾即可停止。另一方法是用一只雌猪煮汁来煎药。
如果曾经损伤过第九个月的胎气，应当预先服用猪石汤。
In the ninth month of pregnancy, the fetus begins to develop skin and hair, and the six fu-organs and all joints are fully formed. One should drink sweet wine and eat delicious food, loosen the belt, and wait calmly for delivery; this is called nourishing the hair and accumulating strength.
During the ninth month of pregnancy, the Foot-Shaoyin (Kidney) meridian nourishes the fetus, and acupuncture or moxibustion on this meridian should be avoided. The Foot-Shaoyin meridian internally connects with the Kidneys (Zang-organ), which govern the tendons and ligaments. By the ninth month, the fetus's tendon connections are complete. Avoid damp and cold environments, and do not wear clothes that have been heated by fire.
If sudden dysentery occurs in the ninth month of pregnancy, accompanied by abdominal fullness and urgency, fetal qi rushing up to the heart, severe lower back pain preventing turning, and shortness of breath, Banxia Tang (Pinellia Decoction) may be used.
Banxia Tang (Pinellia Decoction)
Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma Praeparatum, soaked in water seven times, marinated overnight with two liang of Shengjiang [Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens])
Maimendong (Ophiopogonis Radix, soaked in water, heart removed, dried) — each five liang
Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix, radix and rootlets removed, sliced, dried)
Wuzhuyu (Evodiae Fructus, cleaned, soaked in water, washed three to four times, dried)
Ejiao (Colla Corii Asini, stir-fried with Ge Fen [Meretrix Shell Powder]) — each three liang
Ganjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Ardens, one liang, processed until scorched)
Dazao (Jujubae Fructus, twelve pieces, pitted)
The above seven ingredients are crushed, boiled in nine sheng of water to obtain three sheng of decoction. Strain the dregs, add eight ge of white honey, warm gently over a low fire, and divide into four doses. The dysentery will cease. An alternative method uses the broth of one female pig to decoct the herbs.
For those who have previously suffered damage to the fetus in the ninth month, Zhushi Tang (Porcine Stone Decoction) should be taken prophylactically.
Zhushi Tang (Porcine Stone Decoction)
Zhushi (Porcine Calculus, one piece, fascia and membrane removed, washed clean)
