I'm not exactly sure, but whenever it happens, then the person/thing/whatever you call it (baby) has life.
I feel this way about death. My lungs have closed up before to the point where I thought I was checking out. Luckily I had my inhaler. I would not want to be put on any form of breathing machine at the hospital, especially if I couldn't speak/communicate on my own. It's scary to not be able to breath, because we need breath. You can for about 12 days or so with no food, about 2 or 3 with no water and only at most 2 minutes without oxygen/air (breath). So to me, it just makes sense to start life with breath.
