The following protocol is directly from the classical texts and has been tried and tested by a dear friend who is a Vaidya whose son was born in a very easy, uncomplicated and painless delivery, exactly how birth should be! I have tried to give the textual (shastric) references where can be. From onset of pregnancy till delivery – Maha Dhanwantharam Gulika This is a general medicine for improving heart function of mother and child and balancing vayu It is also known as Garha Raksha Gulika in the texts. Take 2 tablets twice daily. From 7th month till delivery – Sukha Prasava Grantham The name means good delivery and it helps to prepare the physiology for easy and natural birth. It helps position the child accordingly and prepares the mother accordingly. Take it twice daily 5ml along with hot organic milk as the annupana (vehicle) If hemoglobin levels are low – Annabhedisinduram Take as prescribed by your Vaidya while monitoring the hemoglobin levels accordingly. It is quick and effective. 9th month Daily during course of pregnancy – Dhanvathram tailam massage Medicated oil should be massaged on the body (daily Abhyanga). If Dhanvantram is not available any medicated high quality oil is fine, otherwise plain cured sesame oil is also fine. During delivery After the waters have broken and labor has commenced following protocol is helpful: Apply a few drops of warm Dhanvantari 101 oil to the umbilicus. This aids easy delivery. The entire yoni (vagina) should be massaged with Jatyadi Oil. Medicated ghees can also be used. After Delivery Dasamula arishta should be given regularly as a restorative Mother should take oil bath (Abhyanga) for 40 days at least! Return to eating first with kanji (rice water) then thin gruel then thicker gruel. Graduate slowly over a few days. This is a very important point. Bind the abdomen for a few weeks with a cotton cloth. For the Infant After birth a little rock salt can be put on tongue to induce vomiting and clear the respiratory system After birth place a cotton swab with ghee on the babies’ fontanel Give honey and ghee with a pinch of swarna bhasma (purified gold) continually.
