No, the fetus does not get its food directly from the stomach. Instead, the mother’s nutrients are delivered to the fetus through the placenta, an organ that connects the mother’s bloodstream to that of the fetus. Nutrients and oxygen pass from the mother's blood into the placenta and are then transported to the fetus via the umbilical cord. This system allows the fetus to receive essential nutrients without directly accessing the mother's digestive system.
