Amniotic fluid is a clear, slightly yellowish liquid that surrounds the unborn baby (foetus) during pregnancy. It is contained in the amniotic sac. The amniotic fluid maintains fluid temperature, helps free movement and growth of the foetus, and also acts as a shock absorber. Food in the form of glucose is carried to the foetus from the placenta through the umbilical cord.
