A member asked:
I want to know whether a sac of amniotic fluid is formed during pregnancy or it is already present in female body since birth.
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
I will answer: The sac containing the fetus and surrounds it is a product of conception and goes away after the baby is born and the placenta is delivered.

Amniotic fluid sac: It is formed after the embryo implants into the endometrial lining of the uterus. It is not there since birth.
