What is "amniotic fluid"?
Amniotic fluid is the clear, slightly yellowish liquid that surrounds and protects the baby in the womb during pregnancy. It acts as a shock absorber, helps keep a steady temperature, and allows for movement and development. This fluid is contained in the amniotic sac, which is a thin layer that lines the uterus.
