脐带剪切即用烙，男女六寸始合宜，烙脐灸法防风袭，胡粉封脐为避湿。
【注】婴儿初生，先用剪刀向火烘热，剪断脐带。次用火器绕脐带烙之，当以六寸为
度，不可过为短长。短则伤脏，长则损肌。断讫，又用烙脐饼子安灸脐上，以防风邪外入。
随用胡粉散敷脐带间，用软绢新棉封裹之，以避尿湿、风邪。如药不备，即以细熟艾一块，
照根据前法封裹。

共为细未，每用一钱，敷脐上封之。
浴儿之法五枝汤，冬夏寒温适可当，加猪胆汁去污秽，且滋肌肤免生疮。
【注】断脐后三日浴儿，此法其来旧矣。为其革污秽也。临浴时，须择无风密处，适可而止，不可久在水中，冬月
恐其受寒，夏日恐其伤热。其为汤之法，须用桃、槐、桑、梅、柳枝熬成，再加猪胆汁以去其污秽，且能滋润
肌肤，令儿胎疮不生。
藏衣新瓶用帛缠，埋筑天德月空边，向阳高燥宜严密，令儿无疾寿绵绵。
【注】凡藏胎衣，盛在新瓶内，以青帛裹瓶口，择向阳高燥之地，天德月空处，掘地三尺埋之，儿自长寿无疾。
若藏衣不谨，于儿不利。
【断脐】剪断脐带时立即进行烙烫，男女婴儿均保留六寸长度最为适宜。通过烙脐和艾灸的方法可以防止风邪侵袭，用胡粉封裹脐部是为了避免湿气侵入。
【注】婴儿刚出生时，先用剪刀在火上烘热，然后剪断脐带。接着用火器绕着脐带根部进行烙烫，长度以六寸为标准，不可过长或过短。如果剪得太短会损伤内脏，太长则会损害肌肉。断脐完毕后，再用“烙脐饼子”放在脐上施灸，以防止风邪从外部侵入。随后使用“胡粉散”敷在脐带处，并用柔软的绢布和新棉花包裹封好，以避开尿液潮湿和风邪。如果药物不齐，可以用一小块细熟艾绒，按照前面的方法包裹封好。
烙脐饼子配方：豆豉、黄蜡（各等分）、麝香（少许）。
将豆豉和麝香研匀，熔化黄蜡，根据脐部大小捏成饼状，用于施灸。
胡粉散配方：胡粉、甑带灰、干姜、白石脂、棉灰（各等分）、麝香（少许）。
共研为细末，每次取一钱，敷在脐上并封好。
【浴儿】给婴儿洗澡需用“五枝汤”，冬夏季节水温要寒温适中。加入猪胆汁可以去除污垢，同时滋润肌肤，避免生疮。
【注】断脐后三天给婴儿洗澡，这种方法由来已久。目的是清除胎里的污秽。洗澡时，必须选择无风的密闭场所，时间要适度，不可让婴儿在水中浸泡过久。冬天担心受寒，夏天担心受热。制作洗澡水的方子，需要用桃枝、槐枝、桑枝、梅枝、柳枝熬制而成，再加入猪胆汁以去除污秽，且能滋润肌肤，使婴儿不患胎疮。
【藏胎衣法】将胎衣藏在新的瓶子里，用丝帛缠绕瓶口，埋在向阳、高燥、严密的地方，位于天德日和月空日的方位，这样婴儿自然长寿无病。
【注】凡是收藏胎衣，都盛放在新瓶内，用青色的丝帛包裹瓶口，选择向阳高燥之地，在天德日和月空日，挖掘三尺深的坑埋入土中，婴儿自然会长寿且无疾病。如果收藏胎衣不谨慎，对婴儿不利。
[Severing the Umbilical Cord] The umbilical cord should be cauterized immediately after cutting. For both male and female infants, retaining a length of six cun is most appropriate. Cauterizing and moxibustion on the navel prevent invasion by Wind pathogenic factors, while sealing the navel with Hu Fen (Lead Carbonate) avoids dampness.
[Note] Upon birth, first heat scissors over fire and sever the umbilical cord. Then, use a heating instrument to cauterize around the base of the cord; the length should be standardized at six cun, neither too short nor too long. If too short, it damages the Zang organs; if too long, it injures the muscles. After severing, apply "Lao Qi Bing Zi" (Cauterizing Navel Cake) for moxibustion on the navel to prevent external Wind pathogens from entering. Subsequently, apply "Hu Fen San" (Hu Fen Powder) to the umbilical stump and seal it with soft silk and fresh cotton to avoid urine moisture and Wind pathogens. If medicines are unavailable, use a small piece of finely processed Mugwort (Ai Ye), sealing it according to the aforementioned method.
Formula: Lao Qi Bing Zi (Cauterizing Navel Cake)
Fermented Soybean (Douchi), Beeswax (Huang La) in equal parts; Musk (Shexiang) in a small amount.
Grind Douchi and Shexiang evenly, melt Huang La, and shape into cakes according to the size of the navel for moxibustion.
Formula: Hu Fen San (Hu Fen Powder)
Hu Fen (Lead Carbonate), Zeng Dai Hui (Ash from Steamer Bands), Gan Jiang (Dried Ginger), Bai Shi Zhi (White Halloysite), Mian Hui (Cotton Ash) in equal parts; Musk (Shexiang) in a small amount.
Grind all ingredients into a fine powder. Use one qian per application, applying to the navel and sealing it.
[Bathing the Infant] Use Wu Zhi Tang (Five Branch Decoction) for bathing; the water temperature should be moderate in both winter and summer. Adding Pig Bile (Zhu Dan) removes impurities and nourishes the skin to prevent sores.
[Note] Bathing the infant three days after severing the umbilical cord is an ancient practice, intended to cleanse fetal impurities. During bathing, choose a windless, enclosed place. Do not keep the infant in water for too long. In winter, fear cold invasion; in summer, fear heat injury. To prepare the bath water, boil branches of Peach (Tao), Locust Tree (Huai), Mulberry (Sang), Plum (Mei), and Willow (Liu). Add Pig Bile to remove impurities and nourish the skin, preventing neonatal dermatitis (Tai Chuang).
[Storing the Placenta] Store the placenta in a new bottle, wrap the bottle mouth with silk, and bury it in a sunny, high, dry, and secure location, specifically aligned with Tian De (Heavenly Virtue) and Yue Kong (Moon Void) auspicious directions. This ensures the child lives long and free from disease.
[Note] When storing the placenta, place it in a new bottle and wrap the mouth with green silk. Choose a sunny and high-dry location. On days corresponding to Tian De and Yue Kong auspicious stars, dig a pit three chi deep and bury it. The child will naturally live long and remain healthy. Improper storage of the placenta is detrimental to the child.
