Hi Jenny, thanks for the help. I called the emergency vet last night and talked with them for a long time. They said it could be a number of things, but because she was still eating and drinking, with no discharge, and still active, alert and nursing the kittens that it could just be pain. I...
They did also give her fluids, but I do think she was in pain, and I think she's in pain again now that the meds have worn off. I missed the birth of the last kitten, so I am not sure she passed every placenta. She was checked for fever at the vet and had none. It's fairly warm, but not...
Hi there,
I'm fostering a mother cat again, and it's been an exhausting couple of days. She gave birth to 7 kittens very quickly and all seemed well. The next day she started breathign fast and panting. I took to my vet who said there was another kitten and I should take her home and let her...
Well, I thought I would update you with the latest news. Lexi went in to the vet yesterday morning, and the vet discovered she was not pregnant and never had been. She had a stomach infection that was causing her pregnancy signs, oddly enough, and so she was spayed the same day. She's now...

Let's see if this works...

When she's not contracting, she's doing this...
You are so kind! I really appreciate it. I want you to know I just called the emergency vet. I'm not someone who only pokes around the internet for help and won't take them into the vet for medical help. The vet said just what you did, that these things can take a long time, and that as long as...
Thanks for the info! That's very interesting!
Lexi has continued to have what I'm calling baby contractions... not the big pushing ones, for about 4 days now. They're getting stronger, but if I leave her, or if I go to sleep even, it seems to stop. She's calm and happy most of the time, except...
Wow, so that reallly does happen? Two different litters at the same time? That's wild. How do they give birth to only one litter at a time? I'm happy to have someone who knows about pregnant cats having heats. Some people didn't believe me. I mean, I'm no expert. All of mine are spayed and...
I believe she was confirmed as pregnant after being rescued from the house. She was certainly to the vet. She's been acting like she's in heat since what we guess is about week 6. I was worried about false pregnancy for a while, but I am pretty sure I feel babies sometimes. Little hard lumps...
Thanks so much! Still no kittens, but she seems to be having a little bit bigger contractions. Sometimes she still walks around like normal... actually, sort of like she's in heat.
Hi everyone,
I'm fostering a pretty little grey tabby named Lexi who is a rescue from a hoarding situation. She seems pregnant, and more than that, seems to have gone into early labour, but I'm such a worry wart. She's restless as anything, calling and trilling at me, acting like she's in heat...
