Well, I just checked Sasha's temp again and it was 99.4. She is grooming herself "down there" like crazy and she has quite a bit of discharge and has all day. She's very restless and nesting which she hasn't really done before now. I don't see contractions yet but I think she's really close. I can't express milk yet though.

I'll keep everyone updated!

I don't think her water has broken yet. Her current blanket is not wet. Her blanket was wet earlier today but I'm pretty sure she just spilled her water since her bowl was empty. She is mostly resting right now but gets up every few minutes and scratches at her blanket, cleans herself and then lays back down.

She is purring but then again, she ALWAYS purrs. So I don't think that will be an indication for her at all... I don't think I've ever NOT heard her purr. And I will be there with her the entire time. She has a large dog crate so she is confined. I don't think it'll be tonight but maybe tomorrow. I'll still set my alarm clock to go off every hour or so, that way I won't miss any of it!

I've got my cell phone camera and a video camera on standby, lol.

No babies yet. I checked her frequently throughout the night but she didn't even show signs of contractions or trying to push.

Nothing yet. I checked her temp about 2 hours ago and it's back up over 100 degrees. Other than being a little restless, nothing seems out of the ordinary.

No babies yet... she sat up in her box almost all night meowing and looking very uncomfortable. But I haven't seen any contractions, or any discharge at all. I haven't taken her temperature since Saturday night when it went back up.
I really have no idea now when it will be... although I did have a dream last night that both she and Missy went into labor at the exact same moment and they had three kittens each... LOL.

Boo was very much like that the night before she gave birth to her kittens. She had me up all night. As soon as my eye's would shut she would shout at me and go jump in her box wanting me to follow her.

Other than Boo wanting to be close to me I had no other firm sgns labour was on the way. She had no discharge and I saw no contractions. She just looked uncomfortable and shouted at me a lot. I popped out to take the kids to school and got back 20 mins later to find baby number 1 waiting for me.

These ladies just like to keep us on our toes I think. LOL

Here's hoping you dont have too much longer to wait.
