      Hi there,

      Nope, for many reasons including a placenta, and the interior of the uterus not being located near by the bowels 😉

      Nope – The fetus is sealed inside the uterus and poo is in the ladies digestive tract and the 2 never come in contact. Fetus’s DO ‘eat’ what the mother eats or at least gets its nutrition from what the mum eats.

      Nope… The baby is inside the uterus, a special organ in woman where babies develop. It as no contact with the intestine, where poop is.

      😉

      No, this is not possible because the digestive system and the procreation system are not connected!

      No (a) because it would not come into contact with the lady’s poo (poo is made in the intestines the baby is in thw womb) and (b) because babies in the womb are fed through the umbilical cord and don’t ingest food through their mouths like they do once their born.
