Since humans are mammals, the human infant grows and develops in themother's uterus (or womb) for the first 36 weeks (~9 months). The fetus is protected from the outside environment, infection, etc. while it develops as well as receives nutrients (food, oxygen and water) from the mother via the umbilical cord.
