Umbilical cord stays attached to the placenta, and the placenta is removed from the mother in what is commonly know as the "afterbirth"...
Next pregnancy, new placenta, new baby, new umbilical cord

The placenta is attached the wall of the uterus, the baby is attached to the placenta via the umbilical cord. When the baby is born, they cut the umbilical cord. The placenta detaches from the uterus wall adn the mother then delivers the placenta. The mother then bleeds for a few weeks to clear at all the blood and womb lining. When she has her next baby, everything starts again. The womb develops a lining, she grows a new placenta, which attaches onto the uterus wall with the second baby attached via the umbilical cord.

The umbilical cord forms with each new embryo. When the sperm and egg unite - part of the cells develop into the baby and the rest develop into the placenta and cord. It is the placenta that the cord is attached to, not actually to the mother.
Therefore, at birth, the placenta and cord are passed out just after the birth. This means there is nothing left.
Any further foetuses will have their own cord and own placenta.

The placenta started as a cell with the embryo and devided into the placenta. The cord is attached to baby and placenta passing important oxygen filled blood to baby.
After baby is born, the placenta is delivered. After the cord if cut the mother will push out the placenta (where you can see the cord attached and where it was cut from baby).
The cord and placenta belong to baby, not mother. The mother doesn't keep anything after the birthing in complete.
I would assume a pretty nasty infection would take place if mom kept the umbilical cord or placenta inside her, and I'm certain she wouldn't be having more children with that left inside her, (yukkers).
The next baby becomes attached like this.
Sperm meets ovum.
Cells are formed.
Cells devided.
One becomes baby and one is placenta.
Yeah for science!

The umbilical cord is attached to the afterbirth and comes out after the baby is born.
When the pregnancy implants into the womb and becomes attached, the attached bit becomes the afterbirth and the baby and cord develop from the part which is on the other side of the attached bit . Each developing baby has its own afterbirth and cord,
Think of a paddleball and ball.
The side with the cord and ball attached represents the side of the afterbirth which is into the womb with the cord and baby , the back of the paddle represents the bit of the afterbirth which is attached to the womb.

It stays attached to the placenta and exits the woman's body with the after birth.
A new one is formed with the new baby.
The cool part is... looking up what happens to the umbilical cord that's connected to you. You know... goes through your belly button and attached to your stomach and liver. After a while one of the two veins, the one that leads to the stomach dissolves? (can't think of a better word for it really) dissipates? Leaving only the cord that goes to the liver.
"After birth, the lack of circulation through the umbilical system reduces the umbilical arteries to internal iliac arteries, and forms the vestiges of the umbilical vein into the round ligament which connects the liver to the naval in adults."

It doesnt remain attatched hunni. Its attatched to the baby's life support system, the Placenta. After birth we expel this organ that has nourished our little one for the last 9 months, and the cord is clamped from the babys abdomen and then cut...baby is now free, second, we give birth to the placenta then it is usually thrown away (although it is the property of the mother and in some countries this organ is eaten to avoid the onset of post-natal depression and to re-store good iron levels within the mother who will now under-go a heavy bleed.) hope this helps

It comes out attached to the placenta. When you get pregnant again, a new placenta and umbilical cord form for the new baby.

????
The umbilical cord that is attached to the mother comes away with the placenta after the birth.

you obviously don't know much. the umbilical cord is attached to the placenta which comes out after the baby. a new placenta and umbilical cord are made for the next.

ok peoples - abortion remains criminal up till purely before delivery in the U.S. The extremely contemporary rules enacted constrained WHY they have been finished. The overdue term abortion cost hasn't even dropped. Abortion medical doctors purely cite "danger to the mum" as a reason and pass away it at that. of direction, that danger could be no greater suitable than that for the different pregnant woman, yet that doesn't legally count. That being stated, this would possibly not be a question. that's in straightforward terms a rant. whilst i think of you're suited in opposing abortion, this remains Y!A. in case you do not have a question, do not positioned up it. And to the female who stated she'd pay attention to him while he ought to offer delivery: a million. Kidney stones are considered greater painful then giving delivery, maximum of adult adult males are certainly able to understand the soreness ranges of childbirth. 2. i will pay attention to what you may say approximately abortion once you have experienced being aborted. There are some extremely stable motives for having an abortion, yet your implied reason, which relatively quantities to little greater suitable than "It relatively hurts" is the poorest of the poorest motives.

It goes away with the placenta and a new one is developed for every single child. Its not a permanent thing inside the mother!! Its only there when she is pregnant !

It comes away as the afterbirth with the placenta.
Next pregnancy, new baby, new cord.
