The sound that is heard through amniotic fluid is usually irregular. It’s because the sounds are similar to what the fetus heard in the womb. As for the way to soothe a crying baby, there is no better one than white noise (a sound frequency or a signal that one hears as a gentle hiss), or vacuum cleaner sound. There is one more thing that the amniotic fluid delivers to the fetus. Since water rarely changes in temperature because of its high specific heat, the fluid maintains the heat as warm as the mother’s. It delivers the warmth of the mother to the fetus that is immature in controlling its temperature. Amniotic fluid, which is heated by the mother’s temperature, surrounds the baby, keeping consistent temperature. The amniotic fluid fills the space between the mother and the fetus that is connected to the mother by umbilical cord so it becomes a link between the two. As the amnion that covers amniotic fluid protects the fetus from the invasion of germs, it is just like the fetus is in a bioclean room. Furthermore, the fluid protects the fetus from germs. Moreover, the amniotic fluid keeps the umbilical cord away from the fetal body if the umbilical cord is wrapped around the baby’s body, it can hinder the baby’s blood flow and physical development, and at worst it can be even deadly if the coil gets wrapped around the baby’s neck. For example, if the mother’s abdomen is suddenly pushed or hit by any force, the fluid absorbs the shock and the fetus is not directly affected by the force. First of all, the amniotic fluid cushions the fetus from external shocks. It’s just like a cradle that plays the role of mother’s arms. How can this be possible? It’s because they remember their living in the water called amniotic fluid in their mothers’ wombs for nine months though they forget it three months after birth.Īmniotic fluid that surrounds the fetus for nine months is not simple water. They can swim very peacefully and open their eyes underwater.

Under the water, babies are comfortable rather than afraid.

Surprisingly, however, the scene was real. Seeing a newborn baby swimming, who cannot even hold its head up yet, most people thought that the scene must have been created. In an advertisement of a milk powder company, a swimming infant has once appeared.
