Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Because Babies lungs do not function the same way in the womb as they do outside of the womb. Before birth a baby's lungs are filled with amniotic fluid. They do “practice” breathing towards the end of the pregnancy with periodic inhaling and exhaling of amniotic fluid.
