The head of a developing fetus grows faster than the body due to the early development of the brain and central nervous system, which are critical for survival and function. Rapid brain growth necessitates a larger head size to accommodate the developing neural structures. As the fetus matures, the body grows at a relatively slower rate, resulting in a proportionately larger head compared to the body during early gestation stages. This disproportionate growth begins to even out as the fetus approaches birth.

The developing foetus gets everything it needs from the mother via the umbilical cord. That includes food and oxygen (which is dissolved in the mother's bloodstream). The umbilical cord performs a 'gas exchange' which removes waste gasses from the bloodstream of the foetus, and delivers fresh oxygen. The foetus doesn't need to breathe air to grow and survive. Once the baby is delivered, the placenta stops working, and the child take its first breath of air. From that moment, it's dependence on the mother's body stops.
