My cat is around 8-10 wks pregnant. Her nipples have changed but don't seem swollen a lot like full of milk but the nipples are white-tipped... Is that the sign that milks in?

I hope she isn't 10 weeks pregnant, as cats only carry for 9 and a bit weeks.

The best way to avoid the anxiety of when her kittens are due is to not let her get pregnant - to get her neutered.  However since she is heavily pregnant all you can do is wait.  Since you don't know the first date of mating you also have no idea when she is so overdue she should be taken to the vets.

Remember she can get pregnant again very soon after delivery - nursing kittens will NOT stop her coming back into call.  So keep her in from now until the vet will neuter her.  It will also avoid you having to handrear if anything happens to her outside.
