婴儿,在胎禀阴阳、五行之气,以生五脏、六腑。百骸之体悉具,必籍胎液以养之,受气既足,月满而生。分娩之
时,初离母体,口有液毒,啼声未出,急用软绢裹指,湛甘草汤,拭去口中毒液,此须良法。仓卒之际或有不及此法者,
以黄连、甘草、朱砂法俱妙,免使毒物咽下,伏之千内,遇天行时疫,热气熏蒸,乃乘于心。心主血脉,脉得血,流散
于胃。胃主肌肉,故发于外,而成痘疹之候,世之长幼无可免者。若根据初生拭口之法,而免痘疮之患,或遇天行时疫侵
染,只出肤疹细疮,易于调治。此乃秘法,人罕知者。又断脐之法,犹当谨慎。当隔单衣以牙咬断,将口暖气呵四五遍;
若用剪刀须纳怀中暖透用之。断脐,当令长至足。若大短则伤脏,令儿腹中不调;若大长则伤肌,令儿皮枯鳞起。断脐
之后不可入生水,以绵纸裹定,用艾火脐头灸五壮,或七壮。不拘寒暑,此法甚妙。不然重则脐风噤口,轻则脐疮腹痛
之症生矣。尤宜避风,初离胞胎亦宜温暖。芽儿者如初生之草芽,谨慎护持可也。

印堂穴、期门穴、人中穴(男童灸左侧,女童灸右侧,各灸三壮)
婴儿在母胎中禀受阴阳五行之气,从而生成五脏和六腑。全身骨骼形体都已具备,必须依靠胎液来滋养,元气充足,月份圆满后出生。分娩之时,婴儿刚离开母体,口中含有液毒,啼哭声尚未发出,应立即用柔软的绢布包裹手指,蘸取甘草汤,擦拭去除口中的毒液,这是很好的方法。仓促之间如果有来不及采用此法的情况,使用黄连、甘草、朱砂的方法也非常巧妙,可以避免毒物咽下,潜伏在体内。如果遇到流行时疫,热气熏蒸,就会侵犯心脏。心主血脉,脉得到血液后,流散于胃。胃主肌肉,所以病发于体表,形成痘疹的症状,世上无论长幼都无法避免。如果按照初生拭口的方法,就能免除痘疮的祸患;或者即使遇到时疫感染,也只出细小的肤疹,容易调理治疗。这是秘密的方法,人们很少知道。另外断脐带的方法,也应当谨慎。应当隔着单衣用牙齿咬断,将嘴里的暖气呵四五遍;如果用剪刀,必须放在怀中暖透后再使用。断脐带,长度应当适宜至足部标准。如果剪得太短则会损伤内脏,导致婴儿腹部不调;如果剪得太长则会损伤肌肉,导致婴儿皮肤干枯起鳞屑。断脐之后不可接触生水,用绵纸包裹固定,用艾火在脐头灸三壮或七壮。不论寒暑,这个方法非常奇妙。否则严重的会导致脐风噤口症,轻则产生脐疮腹痛等症状。尤其应当避风,刚离开胞胎的婴儿也应当注意保暖。婴儿就像刚出生的草芽一样,需要谨慎呵护。
朱砂镇心膏:镇心安神,解除胎毒,去除恶液。一生可免除痘疹之患。

猪胆(洗澡可使皮肤细腻,不生疮疥)、桃枝、柳枝(捣碎煎汤,可以辟邪)。
在寅日、卯日、酉日给婴儿洗澡更吉利,如果不巧不是这三天,也是好的。
回气法:治疗婴儿刚出生时气息微弱欲绝,不能啼哭的情况,这是因为难产受寒所致。急忙用棉絮包裹,放入怀中,不要立即断脐,脱去衣服在火上烘暖,盖上衣物;仍用纸点燃蘸油,在脐带上来回燎烤,婴儿得到火气,由脐进入腹部,再用热醋汤浇荡脐带,等到气息恢复啼哭,才可以断脐。
通便法:治疗婴儿刚出生时大小便不通,腹胀欲绝的情况。急忙让母亲口含温水,吮吸婴儿的前后心以及脐部和手足心,共七处。每一处吮吸三五次,以局部变红为度,不久自然通畅。如果不这样做,婴儿就没有生机了。遇到这种情况,急忙用此法救治。
刺泡回生法:治疗婴儿生下即死,口中上颚有泡,名叫悬痈,堵塞了气道。用手摘破水泡,用帛巾擦净血污即可复活。如果血流入喉咙也会死亡。

Ma Pi Feng (also known as Ma Bi Feng, named so because the infant's two nostrils fan like a wing.)
Yintang (Ex-HN3), Qimen (LR14), Renzhong (GV26) (For male infants, moxa on the left side; for female infants, moxa on the right side; three moxa cones each.)
Ya Jing (Aphasia-type Convulsion)

The fetus receives the Qi of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements within the womb, thereby generating the Zang and Fu organs. The entire skeletal structure is complete but relies on amniotic fluid for nourishment. Once the Qi is sufficient and the gestational month is full, birth occurs. At the moment of delivery, upon leaving the maternal body, the infant has toxic fluids in the mouth and has not yet cried. Immediately wrap a finger with soft silk, dip it in Licorice Decoction, and wipe away the toxic fluids from the mouth; this is an excellent method. In urgent situations where this method cannot be applied immediately, using Coptis, Licorice, and Cinnabar is also effective to prevent the ingestion of toxins that might lie dormant within. If exposed to epidemic pathogens later, when heat steams upwards, it attacks the Heart. The Heart governs the blood vessels; once the vessels receive blood, it flows into the Stomach. The Stomach governs the muscles, so the pathology manifests externally, resulting in smallpox or chickenpox symptoms, which are unavoidable for people of all ages. If the initial mouth-wiping method is followed, the risk of smallpox/chickenpox can be avoided. Even if infected by epidemics, only minor skin rashes may appear, which are easier to treat. This is a secret method rarely known. Furthermore, umbilical cord cutting must be handled with caution. It should be bitten through while wearing a single layer of clothing, followed by blowing warm breath from the mouth four or five times. If scissors are used, they must be warmed in the chest before use. The length of the cut cord should be appropriate. If cut too short, it damages the internal organs, causing abdominal imbalance; if cut too long, it damages the muscles, causing dry, scaly skin. After cutting, avoid contact with raw water. Wrap securely with cotton paper and apply moxibustion to the umbilicus with three or seven cones, regardless of season. This method is highly effective. Otherwise, severe cases may result in Neonatal Tetanus (Umbilical Wind) with lockjaw, while mild cases may develop umbilical ulcers or abdominal pain. Wind avoidance is crucial, and warmth should be maintained for the newborn, who is like a tender grass sprout requiring careful protection.
Zhusha Zhenxin Gao (Cinnabar Calming Heart Ointment): Calms the Heart and Spirit, resolves fetal toxicity, and eliminates foul fluids. Prevents smallpox/chickenpox throughout life.
Chensha (Cinnabar, 3 fen, prepared by water levigation), Niuhuang (Calculus Bovis, 1 fen, optional).
Decoct Licorice and Coptis (each 1 qian) in water, dissolve the powder, and smear inside the infant's mouth. (Use before breastfeeding begins.)
San Chao Xi'er Fa (Third-Day Bathing Method): Use warm water for bathing; do not bathe excessively or frequently.
Zhudan (Pig Gallbladder, makes skin smooth and prevents sores), Tao Zhi (Peach Twig), Liu Zhi (Willow Twig) (Crushed and decocted to ward off misfortune).
Bathing on Yin, Mao, or You days is auspicious; other days are also acceptable.
Huiqi Fa (Restoring Qi Method): Treats infants with weak breath and inability to cry due to difficult labor and cold exposure. Immediately wrap in cotton wadding and place in the mother's chest. Do not cut the cord yet. Remove clothes, warm over fire, and cover. Ignite a paper torch dipped in oil and cauterize the umbilical cord repeatedly. The infant absorbs the fire's Qi, entering the abdomen. Then pour hot vinegar solution over the cord. Wait until the infant regains breath and cries before cutting the cord.
Tongbian Fa (Unblocking Bowels Method): Treats infants with constipation, urinary retention, and severe abdominal distension. Have the mother suck warm water from her mouth onto seven points: anterior and posterior chest, umbilicus, and palms/soles of hands and feet. Suck each point 3-5 times until redness appears. Passage will occur shortly. Failure to act results in loss of vitality. Apply this urgently.
Ci Pao Huisheng Fa (Puncture Blister Resuscitation Method): Treats stillborn infants with blisters on the upper palate, called Xuan Yong, blocking the airway. Break the blister manually, wipe blood clean with cloth, and the infant revives. If blood enters the throat, death ensues.
Bianshen Wupi Fa (Body Without Skin Method): Treats infants born without skin. Powder dried white early rice and apply dryly until skin regenerates.
Wu Gudao (Absence of Anus): Treats infants born without an anus. A substitute passage must be created initially. Afterwards, insert a honey-compressed pellet shaped like a jujube daily to prevent closure.
Huanyuan Tang (Restore Origin Decoction): Resolves fetal toxicity, tonifies Primordial Yang, calms the Heart, and prevents smallpox/chickenpox lifelong.
Qidai (Umbilical Cord, one piece, calcined to retain nature), Zhusha (Cinnabar, 3 fen).
Grind together with Cinnabar until fine. Administer with Licorice Decoction within seven days before or after birth.
Liuhuang Gao (Sulfur Ointment): Treats retracted testicles and incessant crying in infants under ten days old due to cold.
Liuhuang (Sulfur), Wuzhuyu (Evodia Fruit, each 2 qian).
Grind into powder. Roast garlic until cooked, mix with powder to form an ointment. Apply to the lower abdomen and bind with silk.

Tiannanxing (Arisaema Rhizome, 2 qian), Zaojiao (Gleditsia Sinensis, 3 fen), Beixixin (Asarum Root, 3 fen).
Grind into powder. Mix with Scallion Decoction and one teaspoon of Ginger Juice. Apply to the fontanelle and warm with hand pressure.
Miduoseng San (Lead Monoxide Powder): Treats infants born with bubble-like lesions resembling fish bubbles or crystal, leaking fluid upon rupture. Common in wealthy families living in buildings without earth contact.
Miduoseng (Lead Monoxide, 5 qian), Huangbai (Phellodendron Bark, 3 qian), Zaozhongtu (Furnace Earth, 2 qian).
Process Phellodendron with Pig Bile until yellow, then grind fine. Mix and sprinkle on lesions.
Zaoxintu (Furnace Earth, also known as Fulonggan, older is better): Highly effective for persistent umbilical discharge.
Longgan San (Dragon Liver Powder): Treats chronic umbilical protrusion with discharge turning into umbilical wind sores, a lifelong affliction.
Huangbai (Phellodendron, processed as above), Chishizhi (Red Halloysite), Fulonggan (Furnace Earth, each 1 qian), Ganyanzhi (Dried Blood of Pig, 5 fen), Longgu (Fossilized Bones, 5 fen), Baifan (Alumen, 3 fen, refined).
Grind into powder, add a small amount of Mosxiang (Musk). Store in a porcelain jar. Sprinkle sparingly on the lesion.
Dingjing Gao (Calming Convulsion Ointment): Treats fetal convulsions manifesting like epilepsy.
Chensha (Cinnabar, 2 qian).
Grind to fine powder. Mix with fresh well water. Apply to the five centers (palms, soles, and chest). Stops immediately.
Cang Taiyi Mifa (Secret Method for Placenta Burial) (From *Zimu Milu*, ensures longevity for difficult-to-nurture infants).
Clean the placenta with water, then wash with wine. Place with Soybean and Adzuki Bean (each 1 he) in a jar. Cover with City Gate Soil, Market Gate Soil, Prison Gate Soil, Scallion Garden Soil, and Leek Garden Soil (each 1 he). Seal the jar mouth with five-colored silk strips (1 chi 5 cun each). Place an iron plate (1 chi 2 cun) on top. Paint with clean ink. Write in Cinnabar: "Soybeans remove guilt, Adzuki beans remove pediatric masses; City gate soil brings nobility, Market gate soil aids walking, Prison gate soil avoids bandits, Scallion/Leek soil promotes regeneration; Give green to the child for long life; Give red for purity and luck; Give white for wealth and thousands of years; Give black for longevity without aging; Give yellow for purity and removing calamities. Execute swiftly." Place an iron token on the jar, bury deep (3 chi). This method is verified and should be practiced.
Ti Taitou (Shaving Head Hair): Auspicious on Yin and Chou days; inauspicious on Ding and Wei days.
Jiawei Guixiong Tang (Modified Angelica and Ligusticum Decoction): Taken 2-3 days postpartum to remove stasis, generate new blood, and prevent uterine lochia pain.
Danggui (Angelica Root, 5 qian), Chuanxiong (Ligusticum Rhizome, 2 qian), Shanzha (Hawthorn Fruit, 3 qian).
Decoct in two bowls of water until half remains. Add brown sugar (approx. 10 teaspoons) and take.
Yongquan San (Surging Spring Powder): Treats low lactation postpartum, or lack of milk due to anger/qi stagnation or chronic illness depression.
Shanjiapia (Pangolin Scales, 5 qian, from anterior chest, fried with Clam Shell Powder), Roudoukou (Nutmeg, 3 qian), Hutaorou (Walnut Kernel, 1 liang, peeled), Zhima (Sesame Seed, 1 liang, fried and ground with walnut into paste).
Grind into a paste. Take 3 qian mixed with good wine. Lie face down for one shichen. Stimulate flow with Pig Trotter Soup at Chen hour. Alternatively, comb breasts 1,000 times with an oily wooden comb until milk flows. If ineffective, repeat every other day. For breast distension, drink Stir-fried Barley Decoction.
