Yes, a fetus can be injured in utero, but it is protected by the amniotic fluid and the uterine wall. Cuts or injuries can occur from trauma, such as in car accidents or falls, or through invasive procedures like amniocentesis. However, the risk of significant injury to the fetus is generally low in the absence of severe trauma. It's important for pregnant individuals to take precautions to minimize risks to both themselves and the fetus.
