An interesting point was made by my mother a few seconds ago, and I knew the people to take up the challenge!

 

If a unborn child in utro, (sometimes from large zygote to fully developed) is suspended upside down for approx. 10 weekes give or take, how can it be that the blood does not end up in the head, causing headrush like symptons and or periodic blackouts.

 

One point to take into consideration is (my fathers contribution) is that does the blood get utlized in developing the unborn childs brain?

 

Just a thought, and thanks in advance!

It's the principle of buoyancy. Try being upside down in water, you shouldn't get a head rush.

Well, if you were to stand on your head right now you would notice that you do not pass out. The only "headrush" symptoms you get are after you have stood back up and the blood drains from your head to your limbs.

 

But as for a baby, i believe that it has to do with volume, the baby has more blood by volume than you do now. so it staying on its head has little to no effect, because there is no need for blood to rush back to its limbs.

I have low blood pressure, so I'd at the least black out upon standing back up.

Thanks for the feedback guys, really helped!!
