Yeah I'm playing the waiting game aswell! She's normally very kept to herself, shes always been attached to me even before she got pregnant but now all she wants to do is be pet, cuddle or be held lol my best guess on how long for my queen would be 7/8 weeks
Oh so sweet! Duchess has been "boiling" for over 24 hours, had some elevated breathing but not labor fast. She FINALLY picked a nest and has been in there most of yesterday. She refuses to do anything by the book!! Still eating 4 or 5 pieces of kibble at a time. Can cats REALLY choose to start, stop or hold off labor? Of course she picked a nest so far under my bed I can't get to her easily, instead of the 3 lovely nesting boxes I made for her!
Oh yeah, good luck, labor vibes an, go Kitty, go!! An all that jazz! Very excited for all our spring kittens!!!
Yeay! Hope its soon!!

How long have you been seeing/feeling the kittens move? Generally from the time that starts you are about two weeks away from delivery. That may help you narrow it down some.
Regardless it sounds like she is getting close. Now is the time to either sleep in the same room as her and/or get up and check on her every few hours so that you can be sure you are present for the birth. Most of the time everything goes off without a hitch but you want to be there just in case. If for nothing else it's important to be sure there is a placenta delivered with each kitten. A retained placenta is very life threatening. You can save yourself a lot of worry later if you know they were all delivered! Here is a great article on potential complications and how to deal with them: http://www.fabcats.org/breeders/infosheets/breeding_from_your_cat/felineparturition.html .
Do you have your birthing kit all ready? If not here is a good link to getting one started: http://www.thecatsite.com/t/80724/all-about-pregnancy-labor-delivery-in-cats . I would also recommend writing your vet's number and the local after hours vet's number in your notebook ahead of time. That way if any complications do arise you aren't scrambling to find them!
Finally, please remember that your girl can go back into heat very quickly after giving birth (as short as a few days). So, make sure she does not have access to the outdoors or to any intact Toms until after she is spayed. Make her appointment the same time you make it for the kittens. It sounds like you have found homes for all of them and very few adopters will refuse paying for the surgery as part of the adoption fee. Who knows, your vet may give you a group discount!
Vibes for a safe and healthy delivery!
