血气耗夺导致胃气上逆，出现呕吐下泄。另一种说法认为是痰火相互搏结。饮食刚咽下便随即吐出。这导致了妊娠恶阻，食物难以吞咽。半夏茯苓汤是治疗此症的要药。

凡是孕妇全身浮肿的，有脚部浮肿的，俗称胎肿，又称胎水。有的因脾虚不能制约水湿，血液散溢四肢而肿胀；有的因胎气挟带水湿，水与血相互搏结；有的因脾胃虚弱湿气重；有的因感受风寒冷邪；有的因痢疾之后出现肿胀；有的因饮食过量；有的因腹胀而肿胀。治疗应当详细诊察。
肿胀多因湿热引起。山栀子和莱菔子炒制后适宜，研成粉末用米汤调服。能保证虚性肿胀完全消除。
孕妇出现心中烦闷（子烦），是因为肺脏虚弱，热气乘袭于心，导致心烦。停聚的痰饮积聚在心胸之间，或者冲逆到心，也会引起烦躁。如果有痰且感到烦躁，口吐涎沫，厌恶闻食物的气味，这就是烦躁。
Blood depletion leads to rebellious Stomach Qi, resulting in vomiting and diarrhea. Another theory suggests that Phlegm-Fire combats each other. Food is vomited immediately after swallowing. This causes nausea of pregnancy (Ezu), making it difficult to swallow food. Banxia Fuling Tang is an essential prescription for this condition.
Cold and heat intermingle, deficiency and excess coexist. Regulating Qi to achieve harmony ensures the fetus remains tranquil.

For pregnant women with generalized edema or lower limb edema, commonly known as Tai Zhong (Fetal Edema) or Tai Shui (Fetal Water). Some cases arise from Spleen deficiency failing to control water, with blood dispersing to the four limbs causing swelling. Others result from the fetus carrying water, where water and blood combat each other. Some are due to Spleen-Stomach deficiency with dampness. Some stem from exposure to wind-cold. Some occur after dysentery. Some result from excessive dietary intake. Some present with abdominal distension and swelling. Treatment requires detailed examination.
Swelling and distension are mostly caused by Damp-Heat. Gardenia (Shanzhi) and Radish seed (Laifu) should be stir-fried appropriately, ground into powder, and taken mixed with thick rice gruel. This ensures the resolution of deficiency-type edema.
When a pregnant woman experiences mental restlessness (Zi Fan), it is because Lung deficiency allows Heat to invade the Heart, causing mental agitation. Retained Phlegm and accumulated fluids gather between the Heart and Chest; if they rush up to the Heart, they also cause irritability. If there is Phlegm accompanied by irritability, saliva is spat out, and there is aversion to the smell of food, indicating irritability.
Pregnant women experiencing heart palpitations, chest oppression, and Zi Fan (mental restlessness during pregnancy) have an etiology involving two Fires (Ministerial Fire and Imperial Fire) acting within. Zhuye Tang eliminates deficiency-dryness diseases, and Maidong Yinzi resembles a fairy elixir.
