Actually her pregnancy lasts 108 days on average, this is called the gestation period. When a lioness' urine produces estrogen and the lions smell it, they copulate with the lioness. It takes about 1500 copulations for her to get pregnant. Which is 3 times an hour during the day for 5 or 6 days.

108 days divided in months is approximately 3 and a half months.
