It is surrounded by the Amnion, like, the Amniotic fluid.
Amniotic sac
Amniocentesis is the medical term for removal of fluid in the amniotic sac.
The uterus. In placental mamals, this is via the placenta.
Amnion is the membrane that covers the embryo. Chorion is the membrane that covers the amnion, the yolk sac, and the allantois. The space delimited by the chorion and the amnion is called amniotic cavity and it is filled with aminiotic fluid. The amniotic cavity has the functions of preventing desiccation of the embryo and of protecting it against mechanical shocks.
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.
The amniotic sac holds a developing foetus when it is in the womb. The fluid it contains (the amniotic fluid) acts to protect the foetus. Think of a goldfish in bag of water - even if you accidentally knock the bag the fish doesn't feel anything. The same principle applies.
Amniotic fluid is a nourishing fluid found in the amniotic sac of the embryo. Its main function is nourishment of the embryo. Please refer to the related questions for detailed information on Amniotic fluid.
In the first developmental stage of the embryo, you have the ball of cells. In this ball of cells you have cavity filled with fluid called amniotic fluid. This fluid sac separates the embryo, from the outer non-embryo cells. Later on it encloses the fetus in amniotic fluid to give amniotic sac. This sac is attached to uterus from inside.
The inner most membrane is the fluid filled amniotic sac, next is the yolk sac, where the first blood cell originates. The allantois forms near the yolk sac, while the chorion surrounds all the other ones.

Amnions surround embryos by encasing them in amniotic fluid. Frogs are animals that lack amnions. Only reptiles and mammals have amnions.
