I've heard people say fetuses are parasites, I've also heard people argue that born babies are also parasites, what everyone fails to realise is that both of them are right.
Fetuses can indeed be seen as endoparasitic whilst within a womb while weeping newborns switch to an ectoparasitic relationship with their parenting host.
Fetuses rely on feeding on their host directly through the umbilical cord while also soothing the host by releasing low frequency sounds and a cocktail of hormones and chemicals.
Babies rely more on emotional and behaviour manipulation by mimicking human facial expressions and carefully directed loud screeches at random intervals to keep their host tired and confused. Babies also retain their need for stealing nutrients directly by releasing special chemicals which make the host's mammary gland lactate which if left untreated can cause discomfort and pain which forces the host to rely on its baby for relief.
The only known way to prevent infection by the parasites is through surgical intervention known as vasectomy, even though there have been documented cases of the parasites being able to spread through saliva which leaves joining a monastery the only known method of remaining uninfected.
