The amniotic sac that contains the embryo forms about 12 days after conception. Amniotic fluid immediately begins to fill the sac. In the early weeks of pregnancy, amniotic fluid consists mainly of water supplied by the mother. After about 12 weeks, fetal urine makes up most of the fluid.

Starting at about 20 weeks the baby starts swallowing amniotic fluid and yes the baby will urinate.

The baby urinates into the amniotic fluid. That is why it is important to drink lots of water to help keep the fluid clean.

The baby is not urinating through you. I would recommend a good pregnancy book that gives you all those kinds of details. It will help you pass the time of pregnancy and you will have these types of questions answered.

The baby doesnt urinate WHEN you do, but he/she does urinate. He urinates in his little bubble that he is living in. He also swallows it and breathes it. That's what amniotic fluid is. It doesnt come out of you though.

Yes, a baby does urinate, but not with you. Babies swallow their amniotic fluid, it passes through their system, and they urinate back into the amniotic fluid.

your baby urinates in the womb, but it doesn't necessarily do so at the same time as you. it expels fluid through it's boy/girl parts and then it recirculates through the baby's mouth and nostrils. you can actually see this in a few tests they might preform for diabetes around five months gestation

your husband is almost right. Babies usually don't urinate until they are born. But it is possible for it to happen. Throughout pregnancy any of the babies waste is passed through the umbilical cord.
