Does a fetus drink amniotic fluid?

Yes, a fetus drinks amniotic fluid. Amniotic fluid is a liquid that surrounds the developing fetus during pregnancy. It is produced by the fetus's kidneys and lungs. The fetus swallows the amniotic fluid, which helps to develop the digestive system and the lungs. The amniotic fluid also helps to cushion the fetus from injury and maintains a constant temperature.
