The amniotic sac contains a fluid known as amniotic fluid that is composed of amnion and water after fertilization. About ten weeks later the liquid contains proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and phospholipids, urea and electrolytes, all of which aid in the growth of the fetus. In the latter stages of development the fluid will also contain fetal urine.
