Detailed explanation-1: -Waste products and carbon dioxide from the baby are sent back through the umbilical cord blood vessels and placenta to the mother’s circulation to be eliminated.
Detailed explanation-2: -The researchers also noted in their study that, while the placenta does indeed filter out most toxins in the bloodstream before entering the fetus, it cannot act as an impenetrable barrier against all toxic substances.
Detailed explanation-3: -It’s eventually connected with the umbilical cord, which is considered your baby’s lifeline, as it’s the way you transfer nutrients and oxygen to them. Through the placenta, your baby will also deposit waste products that you transfer out of your own body.
Detailed explanation-4: -The placenta is a temporary organ that develops during pregnancy. It attaches to the lining of your uterus and delivers oxygen and nutrients to your growing baby through the umbilical cord. If something goes wrong with the placenta, it can be serious and even life-threatening to both mum and baby.
