Gigantic belly!!! She's so pretty, too!

I have to ask, because I feel so bad for Veruca right now, does Flower's belly feel like it's completely full? My kitty isn't as big, but I've been able to see kittens kicking at her stomach for about 10 days now. It feels like a ripe watermelon, and she cringes if I even lay a finger on it. I'm not going to touch her anymore, but I feel so bad. You can literally see the outlines of kittens moving around in her belly now. It's like she ran out of room!

Awww, poor thing...when Boots(foster cat) was pregnant she was GIANT too, even bigger than Flower, if thats possible!
In the end she had 8 kittens! But she had been sick, and the kittens didn't get the amunities in the milk, so they got sick, and 5 died...
But those guys were healthy after!
Go Flower, Go! lol, Flower Power!

How long would be too long of a wait to make Flower a vet appointment,She is 55 days with me and since i do not know when she got pregnant I am just worried about her going over 63 days too much and then problems happening.

I called my vet yesterday because Coral is about 11 days past the date they told me. They told me to wait till Monday and then bring her in. They kept saying, as long as I can feel the kittens moving around, not to worry about it. If I were you, I'd wait till about the same. Give it the weekend and then, maybe just to ease your mind even, take her in. Exams are pretty inexpensive, so it's worth it. Ugh, I keep checking your thread and hoping with you. Maybe this weekend will be the magical weekend.

Hehe...I was just looking at the pics you had put up, and I noticed that in the second one you can acctually see a kitten bulge! Its gotta be soon!
When Boots was about to have hers, she got so big that she couldn't eat, r else she'd throw up...=[
But flower should be fine....
Good luck! Go flower!

The weekend is the worst time for them to have their kittens because e-vets are not all opened. You know what that means!? They're going to have their cats on the weekend I bet. I am so excited for you.

Well she has been cuddling with me all day i went to lay in bed and of course she followed and she was leaking mucus so hopefully it is today,The kittens are still moving around,Is that normal to be so active before birth?
I have an E vet on speed dial just in case.

Ohh and she was panting too.

Hmm... I'm no expert but it might be the beginnings of labor. Fingers crossed!
