When you can no longer see the kittens move, and her belly gets really tight, is when she is very close. She'll usually "drop" at that point and look less round. Getting there!

worried . our bengal kitten and Fix have hot very close and fizz has chose to play mother role to our bengal kitty who is 15 weeks old . fizz is letting the kitten feed of her is this a problem and could it start her labor of she loves her so much always washing her and chattering but now she's behind our chair letting the kitten feed of her ???
My opinion only but I wouldn't let her nurse, I have replied quick, I'll have a think a bit more about it but I see more negative then positive on this

In my experience, I had a heavily pregnant cat, who let her "teenage" daughter feed off her and this brought on her labour quite quickly. It's something to do with being stimulated in that way.

She's been led hid behind the chair all day not asked for food or anything just led with the kitten I can see no discharge but waiting on her to come out don't want to disturb her xx
I think it's okay she's with the kitten. It is comforting for them both. But you'll probably need to keep the older kitten from nursing once the babies are here so she doesn't hog space and a nipple!

you should separate her. Mothers first milk is actually colostrum and once it gone its gone. the colosseum is filled with special antibodies and help provide necessary support for the kittens after birth. so definitely for the sake of the unborn kittens separate the bangle. hope to see kittens soon.

I'm going through the exact same thing, my friend. I would say that, yes, this is labour. Some cats like to take their sweet time getting it over with. My Granola's in the same boat with yours. Good luck and Godspeed!
What's happening now? Any kittens?

No babies yet her breathing 8s back to normal checked her vulva just bow it's sticky and u can see the opening it looks bigger . She's just having a munch in some food . She's got milk but dunno if that's cuz the other kittens been suckling on her but she didn't have anything before xx
If she has discharge and milk and her vulva is dilating, then she is moving toward labor soon. This is good news!
