The umbilical cord does not detach inside the womb; it remains attached to both the fetus and the placenta throughout pregnancy. After birth, the cord is clamped and cut, which separates the newborn from the placenta. The remaining stump of the cord typically dries up and falls off within a few weeks after birth. During pregnancy, the umbilical cord serves as a vital lifeline, providing oxygen and nutrients while removing waste from the developing fetus.
