Approximate delivery day for this mama kitty?

[Sarthur2]

This is what causes us to remind ourselves why we love cats and have so many. Grrr!

@sweetlynn86   You need sleep.  AT least she gave up on the litter box.

 

[Sarthur2]

Well, I am praying Polka has her kittens this weekend. She sounds miserable and is making everyone else miserable around her.

 

[sweetlynn86]

Polkas water broke!! Now I'm a real nervous wreck.

Dear Sweetlynn86, just wanted to send good wishes to you and Polka.  Hang in there. The best is yet to come. I feel  that you and Polka are about to be vastly rewarded for all of this. 

 

[Sarthur2]

Alright! Let the games begin!

 

[sweetlynn86]

It's been about an hour since her water broke. Now she's eating. Again. Nothing like breaking every "rule" of feline labor and delivery.

 

[sweetlynn86]

Started worrying because her amniotic fluid is tan but according to "Dr. Google", tan is an acceptable color.

 

[Sarthur2]

Water can break up to 48 hours before delivery. Thought you might like to know that you still may be facing sleep loss in your future.

I've read this whole thread. I love it. I've always been an animal lover but I especially love because I've just discovered a cat I've recently adopted is pregnant also. Can't wait to see the new babies

Thank you so much sarther! I feel like my Christmas was just postponed. lol. Do you know when your kitty is due danaj?

 

[Sarthur2]

Sorry to be Scrooge. And maybe they will come sooner. We can hope! [emoji]128522[/emoji]

 

[sweetlynn86]

I hope so! She's not interested in staying put so she's really making a huge mess.

 

[Sarthur2]

They are really uncomfortable during labor and move around a lot. What is she getting into now?

 

[handsome kitty]

@sweetlynn86   think of Polka as a jack in the box.  All of a sudden something will happen.

no

 

[danaj]

no

my guess is she's only hallway along. I just noticed a hard growing belly last week. I just keep watching her closely to make sure I'm catching as many clues as I can

 

[handsome kitty]

@danaj   you should start a thread of your own.  There are articles at the top of the forum you should read. 

 

[danaj]

Ok, maybe I will when I see her progressing more and figure more out about this site.

 

[sweetlynn86]

She is laying on my bed. There's amniotic fluid EVERYWHERE. lol. She's lucky I love her. The fluid has an odd sweet smell. Not a bad smell. Just odd. Is that normal?
