Have you ever wondered how babies breathe before they are born? 🤔 Since they are surrounded by amniotic fluid and not exposed to air, their lungs don’t function like ours yet. Instead, they rely on an incredible system that delivers oxygen in a completely different way. Let’s take a closer look at how this amazing process works! 👶💙
1. Babies Don’t Breathe Air in the Womb
2. The Umbilical Cord – Baby’s Lifeline
3. The Role of the Placenta
4. Baby’s Lungs Are Still Developing
5. The Moment of Birth
Even though babies don’t breathe air in the womb, their tiny bodies are perfectly designed to receive oxygen through the placenta and umbilical cord. As they grow, they practice “breathing” movements to prepare for life outside. Then, in a magical moment at birth, they take their very first breath—marking the start of a whole new journey! 🌎✨ Motherhood is truly incredible! 💕
