I found my cat Soko when she was a stray, she was very petite for her age, malnourished and dehydrated. so when I got her to the vet I didn't know how old she actually was, now she is pregnant I believe. I can feel the kittens and I read you could feel them at 7-8 weeks but they are still kicking tremendously and I've felt them for about a week or two. (And I know cats only stay pregnant for 9) I still feel/see them and they haven't slowed down one bit. She doesn't seem to be in pain or discomfort but she seems to have a weird smell like she can't clean herself as good as she use too. I attached a picture but she seems to be getting bigger everyday. I swear it feels like she's been pregnant forever but i know all kittens will be accounted for and she will be fixed right after this.

We have a good collection of articles in the Cat Health section which you can access by scrolling up to the brown bar, clicking on Articles,and then choosing the Cat Health section and scrolling through the choices.  To make this super easy for you, I am copying the links regarding birth, delivery and newborns for you here.  After reading this information, let us know if you have any more questions.  And good luck with your approaching new arrivals.

This is a lot of useful information, and you can absorb it at your own pace.  Also, it is hard to tell by LOOKING how far along a cat is, because we have had a few HUGE ones, larger than normal.  Here is a photo of one of my rescues just 24 hours before she delivered 5 fat healthy babies.
