Sometimes they don't get actual milk until after the babies are born. The colostrum comes first and is THE most important food the kittens can receive and is thicker and usually kind of yellowish white in color. I'm glad you know the importance of spaying, just be careful! My cat had her SECOND litter when the first was only 10 weeks old! The one kitten we kept nursed right along side the rest, he got a LONG weaning period, and loved it!
Good luck and keep us posted!

Hi all.
I have just checked on my pregnant cat and she has yellowy discharge coming out. Is this normal and how long from now will she go in labour? Any advise:).
