Figure 3.
Cumulative swallowed volume/24 h in one late gestation ovine fetus calculated from 5 min swallowed volumes during control conditions (lower line, amniotic fluid volume = 350 mL) and during expansion of amniotic fluid volume (upper line, amniotic fluid volume = 1960 mL). Arrows show individual bouts of rapid swallowing defined as swallowing 10 mL or move over 20 min or less.
