The fetus gets all the oxygen he needs from the mother's blood by way of the umbilical cord. After birth, he must take his first breath and he will cry at the same time. This crying causes him to take in more air. The lungs will begin to work just as they do now in you.

A baby refers to an infant after birth, whose circulation has transitioned fully to breathing air through the lungs.
