婴儿刚从母腹中出生时，应立即将其抱起。随即用棉絮包裹，抱在成人怀中保暖。即使是盛夏季节，也不可立刻去掉棉絮，必须逐渐减少。因为婴儿刚离开母腹，不能让他受寒。又应迅速用棉絮包裹手指，擦拭婴儿口、眼及周围的污血，都要擦得干干净净，不可让污血进入口眼中。如果抱起太迟，疏于包裹，就会使婴儿受寒；如果污血进入口眼，就会使婴儿生病。（其证候和方论都在后面）
婴儿刚出生，哭声迟缓的，应用葱白轻轻拍打其背部，呼唤父亲的小名，婴儿就会啼哭。另外，婴儿刚生下，气息微弱欲绝，不能啼哭的，必定是难产或受寒所致。应立即用棉絮包裹婴儿，顿放在成人怀中保暖。如果已经包裹，须再添加棉絮，使其极度温暖。并且尚未断脐时，将胎盘放置在灰火上焚烧。同时捻粗大纸卷，蘸油点燃，在脐带上往返燎烤多次。因为脐带连着肚脐，火气可以通过脐部进入腹部。再用热醋汤揉洗脐带，片刻之后气息恢复并啼哭，然后像平常一样洗浴并断脐。这种方法很好，救活的婴儿很多。
婴儿刚生下，必须先洗浴，以涤荡污秽，然后才可以断脐。如果先断脐，洗澡水进入脐部会导致脐疮等疾病。以及洗澡水必须提前用药煎煮好，用瓶子储存，临时加热使用。不接触生水就好。以后的洗浴也都用药煎汤。现在列出煎汤所用的药物如下：
用猪胆汁汤给婴儿洗浴，就不会患疮癣，皮肤滑润光泽。用金银花、虎骨、朱砂煎汤，可以辟除邪气，去除惊恐。（单用虎骨也可以）。用李叶切半升煎汤，可以解肌热，去除温壮热。用白芷二两，苦参三两，锉碎煎汤，可以去除各种风邪。用蒴藋、葱白、胡麻叶、白芷、本（此处原文可能有缺字或通假，依原文提取）、蛇床子煎汤，可以退热。
用苦参、黄连、猪胆、白芨、杉叶、柏叶、枫叶煎汤，可以祛风。
用大麻仁、零陵香、丁香、桑葚、本（同上）煎汤，治疗各种疮疡。
用金银花、桃奴、雄黄、朱砂煎汤，可以辟邪除惊。
用益母草煎汤，治疗疥癣等各种疮疡。
凡是煎汤，每用水一斗，加入药物煎至七升，滤去药渣，调节到适宜的温度使用。冬天不可太热，夏天不可太冷，必须调节得当，才能使用。
婴儿出生后，必须按时洗浴，以去除污垢。但又不可频繁洗浴。如果完全不洗浴，就会导致皮肤皱缩、毛发脱落，多生疮疥。凡是在洗浴时，在背部则稍微少用水，其余部位随意，但不可猛烈冲洗背部，也不可在坐水中时间过长，否则会引动惊恐导致生病。务必谨慎。如果能经常按照这种方法使用，使婴儿身体滑润舒畅，血脉流通，长大后少生病，没有不灵验的。
When the infant has just been born from the mother's womb, it should be lifted immediately. It should then be wrapped in cotton wadding and held in an adult's embrace for warmth. Even in midsummer, the cotton wadding must not be removed abruptly; it should be gradually reduced. This is because the infant has just left the womb and must not be exposed to cold. Furthermore, one should quickly wrap a finger in cotton wadding to wipe clean the blood and filth around the infant's mouth, eyes, and surrounding areas, ensuring nothing enters the mouth or eyes. If lifting is delayed or wrapping is neglected, the infant will suffer from cold. If filth enters the mouth or eyes, the infant will fall ill. (The symptoms and formulas are discussed later.)
If the infant cries late after birth, gently whip its back with green onion white parts and call out the father's childhood name; the infant will then cry. Additionally, if the infant is born with weak breath, on the verge of death, and unable to cry, it is likely due to difficult labor or exposure to cold. Immediately wrap the infant in cotton wadding and place it in an adult's embrace for warmth. If already wrapped, add more wadding to ensure extreme warmth. Before cutting the umbilical cord, burn the placenta over hot ashes. Simultaneously, twist thick paper into a roll, dip it in oil, ignite it, and pass it repeatedly along the umbilical cord to scorch it. This is done because the umbilical cord connects to the navel, allowing the heat energy to enter the abdomen through the navel. Then, wash and rub the umbilical cord with hot vinegar water. Within a short time, the breath will return and the infant will cry. Afterward, bathe and cut the cord as usual. This method is very effective and has saved many infants.
After birth, the infant must be bathed first to cleanse impurities before the umbilical cord can be cut. If the cord is cut first, bathwater entering the navel may cause conditions such as omphalitis. The bathwater must be prepared by decocting herbs in advance, stored in a bottle, and warmed temporarily when needed. Avoid using raw water. Subsequent baths should also use herbal decoctions. The following herbs are listed for preparing the decoction:
Bathing the infant with pig bile solution prevents sores and tinea, making the skin smooth and lustrous. Decocting *Aurum* (Gold), *Os Tigris* (Tiger Bone), and *Cinnabaris* (Cinnabar) repels evil influences and alleviates fright. (Using *Os Tigris* alone is also effective). Decocting half a *sheng* of plum leaves resolves muscle heat and reduces warm-feverish conditions. Decocting two *liang* of *Radix Angelicae Dahuricae* (Baizhi) and three *liang* of *Radix Sophorae Flavescentis* (Kushen) removes various wind pathogens. Decocting *Rhizoma Polygoni Cuspidati* (Shuodao), green onion white parts, *Semen Sesami Nigrum* (Huma), *Radix Angelicae Dahuricae* (Baizhi), [missing character], and *Semen Cnidii* (Shechuangzi) reduces fever.
Decocting *Radix Sophorae Flavescentis* (Kushen), *Rhizoma Coptidis* (Huanglian), pig bile, *Rhizoma Bletillae* (Baiji), *Cupressi Cacumen* (Shanye), *Platycladi Cacumen* (Baiye), and *Aceris Folium* (Fengye) dispels wind.
Decocting *Semen Cannabis* (Damaoren), *Lingering Fragrance* (Linglingxiang), *Eugeniae Flos* (Dingxiang), *Mori Fructus* (Sangshen), and [missing character] treats various sores.
Decocting *Aurum* (Gold), *Ramulus Pruni Persicae* (Taonuo), *Realgar* (Xionghuang), and *Cinnabaris* (Cinnabar) repels evil and eliminates fright.
Decocting *Leonuri Herba* (Yimucao) treats tinea and various sores.
For all decoctions, use one *dou* of water per batch, boil down to seven *sheng*, filter out the dregs, and adjust to a suitable temperature for use. In winter, do not make it too hot; in summer, do not let it be cold. Adjustments must be appropriate for use.
After birth, the infant must be bathed according to schedule to remove dirt, but not too frequently. If never bathed, the skin will wrinkle, hair will fall out, and sores and tinea will multiply. When bathing, use slightly less water on the back, while other areas can be washed freely. Do not spray the back violently, nor let the infant sit in water for too long, as this may induce fright and illness. Caution is essential. Consistent adherence to these methods ensures the infant's body remains smooth and comfortable, blood vessels flow smoothly, and the child suffers fewer illnesses as they grow, which has proven effective without exception.
