I wanted to post one last update to this thread for future readers. Luna appears to be doing great! That is the good news. The bad news is that out of 5 babies the last one went to the rainbow bridge this morning. Luna got to where she appeared not to produce enough milk and wasn't interested in...

I only have a scale that will weigh oz. I don't have a gram scale. Should we start trying to feed it formula or keep trying to get it to latch to her? She is not pushing it away but she does get freaked out by it when it climbs on her head making her want to knock the other 2 off.

I tried that but it wants to sleep off to itself. Right now it is under her tail asleep while the other 2 look like they are boxing each other over the same nipple.

There is still one crawling all around her and not staying with the other 2. Should I be checking that one for something? It is crawling on her head, back and under her legs but not with the other 2 nursing.

That should say the little baby off to itself in the photo above passed away.

Just to keep the thread updated the little baby in the picture above passed away today. Luna wouldn't have anything to do with it. She kept swiping it away. We also found another baby in the litter box. This one was a lot bigger than the others and we believe it was stillborn. She had covered it...

Luna gave birth to another baby in the middle of the night. She now has what looks like 2 sets of twins. She isn't showing anymore signs of contractions this morning so hopefully this is done. I don't feel anything else in her belly. Attached is a picture of the new little family.

I have felt so irresponsible since I realized she was pregnant. I am in my 40's and literally my entire life my animals have been fixed and we are currently a multi cat household with all being fixed but her. I will add that the contraction movements seem to happen also when the kittens push...

I sure will post photos. :)

I will run out to the store and get her some kitten formula. Unfortunately this is my first time experiencing any kind of birth. I can't have children and all my animals have always been fixed. If so many drastic family things had not have happened in the past 8 months she would be fixed too...

It appears her stomach is doing the hard wave movement but she doesn't appear to be pushing to me. It is like her stomach is having a spasm when I touch her and they are hard spasms that make her whole body lift up. She don't appear to be in pain. She is expressing no vocals at all. She is...

Thank you so much! We are definitely watching her. I hope it is just another kitten coming or placenta and nothing life threatening. When I touch her belly or press gently on it to see if feel anything else is when she has the hardest contractions. My poor girl has been through such a long...

We left her alone to deliver since she seemed to do better with the quiet area so I unfortunately did not get to see the placentas. I feel a lump in her belly but my husband insists this is her nipples and milk. She doesn't seem in distress but I don't like the contractions. We have checked her...

The kittens seem to be nursing fine and mama is doing well. We think she is done but her belly is still contracting. She is jumping around like normal and eating and drinking but if she sits on your lap she is still having contractions. Do they have contractions after giving birth until things...

Just to update. Luna had another baby around 6am today and then another one shortly after. She is contracting again so I suspect another one is on its way. She is taking her time.

I had read to mix a little raspberries into some tuna to possibly help induce labor. That is my goal with that meal. I am just trying it to see if it will help induce things. Our nearest emergency vet is 2 hours away. I don't know how to check if the baby is getting enough milk. I just weighed...

I will definitely be calling our regular vet in the morning if she has not had anymore tonight. She just ate a nice helping of tuna mixed with some raspberries and drank some water. The only thing that seems different about her is that she is breathing a little more rapid than normal. Other than...

My cat had her first baby at around 2:25pm today and now after 9pm there hasn't been anything else. She is sleeping. Her breathing is a tad bit rapid but nothing that I haven't seen before. She is 1 year 1 month old and this is her first and will be her only litter. This litter was an oopsy due...
