Outside of medical science, this is very difficult feat to achieve without expert assistance, but as sperm can survive in the birth canal for sometime, ovulation can still occur some days later, etc.
South Devon: Visiting Torquay Museum! (31.8.2018)
We often see various statues of Darwin in the museums in London, but we also enjoy visiting Down House in Kent – his former home.

It is a tricky business presenting this type of information, but we can state that the staff of Torquay Museum have created a very progressive atmosphere that favours ongoing learning over dogmatic versions of history.
