Is it true if a baby is born underwater it can survive underwater?

In: Uncategorized [Edit categories]

Answer:

If a baby is born underwater using the birthing method known as "Water birth" (a method of giving birth, which involves immersion in warm water.) it can survive underwater momentarily until you take it out of the water and takes its first breath. This is not to say that a baby born in water becomes capable of extended survival underwater like mythical mermaid.
