胎动不安，子烦也。
心肺虚热。阴既养胎，孤阳独旺，心肺虚热，故烦，宜清心肺。

丸。（和四、寒三、补二。）
停痰积饮。气郁不舒，以致呕吐涎沫，剧则胎动，竹叶汤。（寒四。）麦冬饮。（寒五。）

（寒八。）
寒饮与气相争。腹有寒气，小腹如扇，恶寒喜热，子宫寒也。附子汤可权用之。（热一。）然脉果迟细，方无有误。
烦症有四种情况：肺虚而火邪乘袭，表现为心烦；痰饮停滞积聚，厌恶食物气味，胸中烦闷；仅有热象而烦，称为虚烦；气机郁结不舒，频繁呕吐涎沫，胎动不安，称为子烦。
心肺虚热。阴血既已用于滋养胎儿，导致孤阳独旺，心肺出现虚热，因此感到烦闷，适宜清泻心肺之热。
心惊胆怯。受孕之后，气血壅滞郁结，热气上冲至心肺，因此烦闷不安，心胆均显怯弱。可用竹叶安胎饮、犀角散。若为肾火妄动，用六味地黄丸。（参考“和”类第四方，“寒”类第三方的用法，“补”类第二方的用法。）
停痰积饮。气机郁结不舒，导致呕吐涎沫，严重时胎动，可用竹叶汤。（参考“寒”类第四方。）麦冬饮。（参考“寒”类第五方。）
津液枯燥。脏腑气虚，营卫不和，导致阴阳偏胜，热邪侵入心脾。可用知母丸。（参考“寒”类第六方。）知母饮。（参考“寒”类第七方。）
脾肾气虚而火郁。可用逍遥散加黄芩、砂仁。（参考“和”类第五方。）
胎气上逼。气逆导致胀闷，可用清肝饮。（参考“散”类第二方。）
上焦气郁。郁结化为火邪，导致中气不和。可用分气饮。（参考“和”类第六方。）
暴渴不止。血液欲凝滞而致口渴，并非疾病，饮用五味子汁即可自愈。
君火乘肺。盛夏时节君火盛行，上乘于肺金，导致烦躁及胎动不安。适宜清泻心火。
浊气上冲而导致心腹痛。适宜疏理气机、舒展郁结，可用紫苏饮。（参考“散”类第三方。）
胎热气逆。怀孕三个月时，君火与相二火共同养胎，导致胎热上冲于心而疼痛。可用紫苏饮。（参考“散”类第三方。）如果胎气上攻于心，导致人事不知。适宜使用调中和气饮。（参考“寒”类第八方。）
寒饮与气相争。腹部有寒气，小腹感觉如扇风般寒冷，恶寒喜热，这是子宫寒盛。附子汤可以权宜使用。（参考“热”类第一方的用法。）然而必须脉象确实迟细，才不会出错。
There are four types of "Zi Fan" (pregnancy-related irritability): 1) Lung deficiency with fire pathogen encroaching, manifesting as heart irritability; 2) Stagnant phlegm and accumulated fluid, characterized by aversion to food odors and chest irritability; 3) Irritability caused solely by heat, termed "Xu Fan" (deficiency irritability); 4) Qi stagnation and discomfort, frequent vomiting of saliva and foam, fetal restlessness, termed "Zi Fan" (pregnancy irritability).

Frightened Heart and Timid Gallbladder. After conception, Qi and Blood become congested and stagnant, with Heat rising to attack the Heart and Lungs, causing irritability, restlessness, and timidity in both the Heart and Gallbladder. Use Zhu Ye An Tai Yin (Bamboo Leaf Fetus-Calming Decoction) or Xi Jiao San (Rhinoceros Horn Powder). If Kidney Fire is agitated, use Liu Wei Di Huang Wan (Six-Ingredient Rehmannia Pill). (Refer to Formula No. 4 in Harmonizing category, Formula No. 3 in Cold/Heat-clearing category, Formula No. 2 in Tonifying category.)
Stagnant Phlegm and Accumulated Fluid. Qi stagnation and discomfort lead to vomiting of saliva and foam; if severe, it causes fetal restlessness. Use Zhu Ye Tang (Bamboo Leaf Decoction).

Disharmony of Fetal Qi, rushing upward to the Heart and Abdomen, causing distension, fullness, stuffiness, pain, and restlessness.
Turbid Qi rebelling upward causing Heart and Abdominal Pain. Treatment should regulate Qi and relieve stagnation; use Zi Su Yin (Perilla Drink). (Refer to Formula No. 3 in Dispersing category.)
Fetal Heat and Rebellious Qi. During the third month of pregnancy, Ministerial Fire and Triple Burner Fire nourish the fetus, causing Fetal Heat to rush to the Heart resulting in pain. Use Zi Su Yin (Perilla Drink). (Refer to Formula No. 3 in Dispersing category.) If Fetal Qi attacks the Heart causing loss of consciousness, use Tiao Zhong He Qi Yin (Regulate Middle and Harmonize Qi Drink). (Refer to Formula No. 8 in Cold/Heat-clearing category.)
