When we say that the fluid is
squeezed out of baby during a vaginal birth we are talking about fluid from
the lungs, right? 
We had this discussion about 6 months ago.  Fluid is not squeezed out from 
the lungs or the stomach at delivery.  It is reabsorbed by the lungs.  Please 
search the archives.
