38 If, in a woman pregnant with twins, either of her breasts lose its fullness, she will part with one of her children; and if it be the right breast which becomes slender, it will be the male child, or if the left, the female.

40 In women, blood collected in the breasts indicates madness.

41 If you wish to ascertain if a woman be with child, give her hydromel to drink when she is going to sleep, and has not taken supper, and if she be seized with tormina in the belly, she is with child, but otherwise she is not pregnant.

42 A woman with child, if it be a male, has a good color, but if a female, she has a bad color.

43 If erysipelas of the womb seize a woman with child, it will probably prove fatal.

44 Women who are very lean, have miscarriages when they prove with child, until they get into better condition.

45 When women, in a moderate condition of body, miscarry in the second or third month, without any obvious cause, their cotyledones are filled with mucosity, and cannot support the weight of the foetus, but are broken asunder.

46 Such women as are immoderately fat, and do not prove with child, in them it is because the epiploon (fat?) blocks up the mouth of the womb, and until it be reduced, they do not conceive.
