She has pretty thick fur so I haven't seen anything moving, but I felt little kicks before and so did my sister when she came to visit. Now it's kind of hard to feel them unless I wait for a while but even then it's just little movements & I only feel them when I press my hand underneath her...
No, not yet. I suspected she was pregnant and was going to take her in this week, but she started to show signs of labor Friday morning so I didn't bother to make an appointment. I will definitely take her in this week if it's recommended, or at least call my vet about it.
Still no kittens after +48 hours.
I think maybe she isn't ready, but I'm confused why her belly would look just like she's close/acting like it.
My mom said she probably isn't pregnant, just in heat.. Is it normal for her to leak discharge if she is just in heat?
I made her a few nests throughout the house where she wouldn't be disturbed. She laid in the one underneath the dining room table, and there's more clear discharge, a little more watery than before I think. She also looked like she was having more contractions.
She spent almost two hours pacing...
Thank you so much @sarthur2 !
She was crying get out of my bedroom, so I let her out and she is roaming around the house. There's no other animals inside and I closed all the other bedroom doors so she can't really go,anywhere but the living/dining room/kitchen.
I'm keeping a close eye on her...
It's so hard to wait! She woke me up at about 3 this morning, meowing pretty loud. She was sitting on the floor, moving around a lot.
I noticed she is a little thinner than before. I read they can appear thinner when the kittens move to the birth canal, but I can't see anymore clear discharge...
Piper is sleeping again, and I haven't seen any more discharge and she hasn't had any contractions or discomfort from what I can tell.
Hopefully she'll have them this weekend, thank you all for the help.
It's kind of watery, I think. I can't get a good look because she keeps shifting or licking it away.
If it's her losing her waters, how long until the kittens start coming? It's 8:30 now and I've been waiting since about 3:15-ish.
Thank you! She seems content laying on my bed, so I put the towels there and let her lay where she wanted. I closed her off in my room now. I'll post pictures as soon as I can!
