How do babies breathe in their mothers' wombs?

Answer 1

They don't breathe with their lungs, their oxygen is supplied by displacement through the placenta:in the oxygen rich blood from the umbilical cord.

Answer 2

Babies in womb don't neet oxygen from air as it is already supplied via the blood coming from mother via the umbilical cord. As one can imagine its almost impossible in a natural way to inhale air when there is liquid all around you. Neonates breath first only when they are out of womb and the placenta is cut. They need to be put in a certain position so that their first breath removes all the liquid entraped in their air passage. Failing to do so can lead to asthmatic problems in later stages of life...You can have better info on medlineplus.gov
