帝曰∶人有重身，九月而喑，此何为也？岐伯对曰∶胞之络脉绝也。胳络者，系于肾，少阴之
脉贯肾、系舌本，故不能言，当十月而复（十月胎产，胞络复通，不治而语音自出也。）又曰∶妇
人重身，毒之奈何？岐伯对曰∶有故无殒，
亦无殒也，衰其大半而已。盖妊妇有疾，不可不投药也。必在医者审度疾势轻重，量度药性高下
，处以中庸，不必多品。视其疾势已衰，药宜止服，则病去母安，子亦无损，复何惧于攻治哉！
夫妊娠受孕之始，其说见于古书。一月名始胎，二月名始膏，三月名始胚。血不流行，形象始化
，未有定仪，见物而变。母宜见贤良贵人。欲男操弓矢，玩美玉、观孔雀。四月始受水精，以成
血脉。五月始受火精，以成其气。六月始受金精，以成其筋。七月始受木精，以成其骨。八月始
受土精，以成其肤。九月始受石精，以成其毛发。十月五脏六腑、关节人神皆备。古人胎教之法
，寝不侧，坐不偏，立不跸。不食邪味，动止端严，情性和悦，常处静室，多听美言，聆人讲读
诗书，陈礼说乐。耳不听淫声，目不视恶色。如此则生子形容端正，才力过人，忠孝贤达，智能
聪明，此所谓因外象而内感也。最宜净房帏，儿不受淫人之毒，无危恶之痘疹，尤免半产堕胎之
忧，不虑临盆横逆之害。母受惊，恐儿有胎惊诸证；母食热毒，儿成胎热 赖疮疡；母受风冷，
儿致胎寒呕泄诸尤。儿生月内诸患，皆母怀娠之失调也。孕妇若发动喜怒忧悲，感风寒暑湿及多
沐浴，掬冷水，妄作劳，轻举动。受胎之后，身体不安而腰酸腹痛，甚至下坠；及身热倦怠，少
食吐呕，胸膈满闷，至于行动少力等证，皆由气血两亏，无所荣养而使然也。有怀孕而仍行经者
，名盛胎，血盛故也。有逾月不产，十二、三至二十四、五月生者亦有之，由气血不足故也。惟
宜服大补气血药。有贵人多在十一、二月生。

黄帝问道：妇女怀孕至九月时出现失音，这是什么原因呢？岐伯回答说：这是因为胞宫的络脉阻滞不通。这些络脉系属于肾，足少阴肾经贯穿肾脏并联系舌根，所以导致不能言语，等到十月分娩后就会恢复。（十月胎儿产出，胞宫络脉重新通畅，不需要治疗，语音自然恢复。）又问：妇女怀孕时，如果有病需要用药，该怎么办呢？岐伯回答说：只要有病因存在，药物就不会伤害母体，也不会伤害胎儿，只要使病势衰减到原来的一半以上即可停止用药。大概是因为孕妇患病，不能不投药治疗。必须让医生仔细审度病势的轻重，衡量药性的强弱，处以适中剂量的药物，不必使用多种药材。观察病势已经衰退，就应当停止服药，这样病去而母体平安，胎儿也没有损伤，还怕什么攻邪治疗呢！
关于妊娠受孕之初的情况，说法见于古书。第一个月称为始胎，第二个月称为始膏，第三个月称为始胚。此时血液不再像平时那样流行全身，胚胎形象开始变化，还没有固定的形态，会随母亲所见之物而变化。母亲宜多见贤良贵人。想要生男孩，可操持弓矢，玩赏美玉，观看孔雀。第四个月开始接受水之精华，以形成血脉。第五个月开始接受火之精华，以形成气。第六个月开始接受金之精华，以形成筋。第七个月开始接受木之精华，以形成骨。第八个月开始接受土之精华，以形成皮肤。第九个月开始接受石之精华，以形成毛发。第十个月五脏六腑、关节及人的精神意识皆已具备。古人胎教的方法，睡觉不侧卧，坐着不偏斜，站立不跛行。不吃怪异的味道，行动举止端庄严肃，性情平和喜悦，常处于安静的房间，多听美好的言语，聆听他人讲读诗书，陈述礼仪，谈论音乐。耳朵不听淫荡的声音，眼睛不看丑恶的颜色。这样做则生下的孩子容貌端正，才力过人，忠诚孝顺，贤能通达，智能聪明，这就是所谓因外在形象而产生内在感应的道理。最适宜保持卧室洁净，婴儿不受淫乱之人的毒害，没有危险的痘疹疾病，尤其免除小产堕胎的忧虑，不必担心临盆时的横逆危害。母亲受惊，恐怕胎儿有胎惊等证候；母亲食用热毒食物，胎儿会形成胎热疮疡；母亲感受风冷，胎儿会导致胎寒呕吐腹泻等弊病。婴儿出生后一个月内的各种病患，都是母亲怀孕期间失调造成的。孕妇如果动怒、欢喜、忧愁、悲伤，感受风寒暑湿以及多次沐浴、掬冷水、妄自劳作、轻举妄动。受孕之后，身体不安且腰酸腹痛，甚至下坠；以及身体发热倦怠，食欲减少呕吐，胸膈满闷，至于行动乏力等证候，都是由气血两亏，无法荣养身体而导致的。有怀孕期间仍然来月经的，称为盛胎，是因为血盛的原因。有过期一个月不生产，十二、三个月至二十四、五个月生产的也有，这是由于气血不足的原因。只宜服用大补气血的药物。有些贵人多在十一、二个月生产。

The Yellow Emperor asked: When a woman is pregnant and becomes aphonic (loss of voice) in the ninth month, what is the cause? Qibo replied: This is due to the obstruction of the collateral vessels of the uterus. These collaterals are connected to the Kidney, and the Shaoyin (Lesser Yin) channel passes through the Kidney and connects to the root of the tongue; therefore, speech is impaired. It will recover after the tenth month. (After delivery in the tenth month, the uterine collaterals resume their flow, and without treatment, voice naturally returns.) He also said: If a pregnant woman has an illness requiring medication, how should it be handled? Qibo replied: "If there is a pathogen, there will be no destruction [of the fetus or mother]; if there is no pathogen, there is no destruction." One should only reduce the pathogenic factor by more than half. Generally, when a pregnant woman is ill, medication cannot be avoided. The physician must carefully assess the severity of the disease and weigh the potency of the herbs, prescribing moderate doses without using too many ingredients. Once the disease process has subsided, medication should be stopped. Thus, the disease is eliminated, the mother remains safe, and the fetus is unharmed; why fear such aggressive treatments?
Regarding the initial stages of conception, ancient texts state: The first month is called "Beginning of Embryo," the second month "Beginning of Paste," and the third month "Beginning of Germ." At this stage, blood does not circulate freely as usual; the image of the embryo begins to transform but lacks a fixed form, changing according to what the mother sees. The mother should associate with virtuous and noble people. To conceive a male, one may handle bows and arrows, play with beautiful jade, or observe peacocks. In the fourth month, the essence of Water is received to form blood vessels. In the fifth month, the essence of Fire is received to form Qi. In the sixth month, the essence of Metal is received to form sinews. In the seventh month, the essence of Wood is received to form bones. In the eighth month, the essence of Earth is received to form skin. In the ninth month, the essence of Stone is received to form hair and body coverings. By the tenth month, the Zang-Fu organs, joints, and spirit are all complete. Ancient methods of prenatal education included sleeping on one's side, sitting upright, standing straight, avoiding strange tastes, maintaining dignified movements, keeping emotions peaceful and joyful, residing in quiet rooms, listening to good words, hearing poetry and books recited, discussing rituals and music, avoiding obscene sounds, and refraining from viewing ugly sights. Doing so results in a child with correct features, superior talent, loyalty, filial piety, virtue, intelligence, and wisdom. This is known as internal感应 (resonance/induction) caused by external images. It is most important to keep the bedroom clean so the infant is not exposed to the toxicity of licentious individuals, avoiding dangerous pox and rashes, and preventing miscarriage or difficult labor. If the mother is startled, the fetus may suffer from fetal fright syndromes; if the mother consumes hot-toxic foods, the fetus may develop fetal heat sores; if the mother contracts wind-cold, the fetus may suffer from fetal cold leading to vomiting and diarrhea. All ailments in the newborn's first month stem from maternal imbalance during pregnancy. If the pregnant woman experiences anger, excessive joy, sorrow, or grief, or contracts Wind-Cold, Summer-Heat, or Dampness, or bathes frequently, handles cold water, overexerts herself, or moves lightly/improperly, she may experience discomfort after conception, including sore back and abdomen, bearing-down sensations, fever, fatigue, poor appetite, nausea, chest fullness, and weakness. These are caused by deficiency of both Qi and Blood failing to nourish the body. Some women continue to menstruate during pregnancy, termed "Prosperous Menstruation" (Sheng Tai), due to abundant blood. Some do not deliver for a month past term, or even at twelve to thirteen months up to twenty-four to thirty months, due to insufficient Qi and Blood; they should take strong tonics for Qi and Blood. Noblewomen often deliver in the eleventh or twelfth month.
