The logical conclusion drawn from the observations among medical experts on gynecology is that it is possible and prob able for human pregnancy to be prolonged beyond the usually admitted normal period; but the question how far beyond is rather difficult to answer; though the greater amount of deviation, the stronger and more convincing should be the proofs. As Taylor remarks, We must be prepared to admit either that conception may, in some cases be delayed for so long a period as five to seven weeks after intercourse, or that there may be a difference of from five to seven weeks in dura tion of pregnancy. Wincle states that A pregnancy may vary from 240 to 320 days and even exceed the latter limit. Nearly seven per cent of the cases are over 300 days.
