Pregnant Cat I Need Help!

[foxxycat]

yes it's normal. Any day now!

 

[Sdxx]

yes it's normal. Any day now!

I'm getting more and more nervous
She's in easy and can't decide where she wants to lay but is have little naps here and there then moving again
I don't think I'll be sleeping tonight

 

[foxxycat]

Aww I am sorry. Yes the first birth is always nerve wracking. My sisters cats have kittens all the time-I was nervous the first time too-now it's not a big deal-now if I can convince her to get the cats fixed would be great.

 

[Sdxx]

Haha hopefully she ends up fixing them.
soon.
But yes definitely nervous I'm worried about them getting stuck or not being awake to make sure they are fine.
Even Though I can feel she's going to be a great mum

 

[ileen]

Good luck, keep us posted!

 

[Nancy Ninetails]

Awww good luck! Although nervous bet you are excited to see the new arrivals.

 

[Sdxx]

Update still nothing
But I noticed she's taken a fancy to my bathroom cupboard so I've set up a bed in there for her.
She's nesting. So hopefully it's soon!
This feels like it's taken forever.
It's worse then when I was 7 months pregnant waiting for my baby girl to come. Haha

 

[Sdxx]

And I'm also sick so I feel like she's going to have then while I'm sick
I hope not all I want to do is sleep all night and day

I've got the same problem. I went to the vet last Friday and they made an ultrasound seeing only one kitten that was fine. Tuesday morning I found something similar which I think was the mucus plug, and she had some diarrhea. But now she is not showing any signs of nesting or labor! I also do not feel her belly move a lot... How long can it take? she still drinks and eats.

 

[StefanZ]

Delivery doesnt always come straight after losing mucus - it may take several days after. Theoretically not so good, because mucus is supposed to be a guard against filth and bacteria, but so it is.

When the kittens are down in the birthing positions, they dont move much - being squeezzed tightly. so you usually dont feel them much, and IF you feel, its longer down. May take a couple of days, anyway.
If she allows tummy rubs, do so, it often helps - and is a nice massage for her.

 

[Sarthur2]

You will both have kittens soon - be patient! Stefan has good advice!

 

[Sdxx]

she now was heaps of discharge and won't come out of the cupboard.
Not sure if she has eaten or not.
I'm patient just really scared haha.

 

[Katy2016]

How is she doing?

 

[Sdxx]

She's doing well but won't come out of the cupboard to even drink

 

[Sarthur2]

Is she laboring? Can you put her food, water, and litter near the cupboard for her?

 

[Sdxx]

I'm not sure if she is but I'm keeping a close eye on her.
Yes everything's in the cupboard she just sniffs the water and food I attempted som kitten milk with no luck either.
I'm getting worried that maybe she went into labour last night and they got stuck but she doesn't seem like she's tired or anything but she should be at least drinking water to stay hydrated especially if labour is near

 

[Sarthur2]

Can you reach in to pet her and feel if her tummy is contracting?

 

[Sdxx]

Yes what do the contractions feel like?

 

[Sarthur2]

Ripples or waves down her sides. When you see them, it's like the fur is kind of rolling.

 

[Sdxx]

That's been happening for about a 3 days now.
Is that normal? Should I be rushing her to the vet
