This work by Elisabeth Rochat de la Vall\u00e9e examines classical Chinese medical literature to presents the various transformations for mother and developing infant during pregnancy.
\nThe discussion begins with Suwen chapter 1, which describes the unfolding of female fertility, then looks at descriptions of the pulses during pregnancy. A month-by-month description of pregnancy is given drawing specifically on the Zhubing Yuanhou Lun, the Mawangdui manuscripts, and the writings of Sun Simiao.
\nTwo later texts, the Qipolun and the Luxingjing, are particularly interesting because they present alternative and more unusual images of the developing fetus, and speak of the presence of the spirits (hun, po, and shen) in the fetus.
\nThese ancient teachings are still valuable today for our understanding of the transformations of blood and qi which take place during the ten months of a pregnancy.
\nThe material will be of great help to those working with pregant woman or simply interested in the classical Chinese perception of women\u0092s health and fertility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
