The umbilical cord is the fetus' "lifeline" to the mother and supplies the fetus with nutrients so the baby can thrive. The cord typically begins to form as soon as the ferilized ovum attaches to the uterine wall.

What is the navel connect to inside your stomach?

The navel, or belly button, is the remnant of the umbilical cord, which connected a developing fetus to the placenta in the mother's womb. After birth, the umbilical cord is cut, leaving the navel as a scar. Inside the stomach, the umbilical cord was crucial for delivering nutrients and oxygen from the mother to the fetus while also removing waste products.
