No but there are lots of horses in the movie, including one that panics and almost steps on a human.

A live turkey is held upside down and fights for its freedom with its wings. Before that the turkey is near decapitation slaughter, but the farmer is interrupted. Other turkeys are seen before they get slaughtered.
Ducks are fed human medications in a pond, they get fed with a lot of pills.

I can't say for sure, but I'm answering "Yes" because there's a scene that could definitely be triggering: A woman comes home and is attacked by a stranger who's been waiting for her. Exactly what his intentions are isn't clear, but it does look like it could be a sexual assault, and the woman has no reason to think that it isn't. When she tells the attacker that she's pregnant, he seems shocked for a moment and is apparently deterred from whatever he was planning on doing. Before he leaves, however, he cuts her across the belly with a knife.

Kind of. Someone tries to escape the dangerous situation she's in, but is caught and forcibly taken back just before she manages to get away completely. Earlier on in the movie, a woman is held in a strong grip by a home invader, who threatens her with a knife, then cuts her belly rather superficially and leaves.

After it happens, a man wipes vomit off his sleeve, which we see quite clearly.

Yes, and it's rather traumatic, as the woman giving birth is in the power of someone malicious, who refuses to help ease her pain, and who has overt evil intentions. It's a terrifying situation. We clearly see the umbilical cord being cut (up close); it's a bit nastier-looking than you usually see in movies.

No, but a woman tells that she and her husband decided to terminate her first pregnancy (+25 years ago), because something was wrong with the child. Whether that's the (whole) truth is not certain.

No, but a pregnant woman is in great danger and fears for her life for good reason more than once. In one scene, someone cuts her across the belly with a knife, though rather superficially, I think. ----- SPOILER ----- SPOILER ----- SPOILER ----- SPOILER ----- SPOILER ----- We see her giving birth alone in a room with someone who plans to kill her as soon as the baby is born.

No. However, some people might be uncomfortable with the couple of times we see a grown man and his mother kissing each other on the lips.

Well, it's extremely sad for one character, but the character isn't a good guy.
