No. But i assume that a baby can be delivered via c-section within minutes of the mothers death.

What a weird question.

But it made you think

I would think no, unless baby was already crowning maybe? With out the brain sending electrical signals to the muscles involved in delivering I wouldn't think a baby could be "expelled". Idk. Can't say I've ever thought about it.

The baby will died moments after the mom dies. Once the mom is dead, a C section must be performed immediately assuming the baby is late enough in term.

Maybe I am slow this morning, but is the vote asking if we want a question of the day or asking about the delivery of a baby after mom has died?

[carterscutie85]

So are you thinking since your body naturally expels urine and feces it will also expel a child after death?

If you're brain dead and kept on life support maybe. But no you need a c- section

Actually just read about that. It’s called coffin birth and can happen.

Coffin birth, also known as postmortem fetal extrusion, is the expulsion of a nonviable fetus through the vaginal opening of the decomposing body of a deceased pregnant woman as a result of the increasing pressure of intra-abdominal gases.
