Abstract
This article looks at the current thinking about foetal breathing. Initially, animal studies are discussed and factors affecting foetal breathing defined. These studies are then correlated with preliminary human foetal studies, leading to the possible role that breathing movements may play in defining hypoxaemia in the foetus a risk.
