I am new here just joined today. Howbdo I start a post? Lol. I have a cat who is very pregnant I am trying to figure out how far she is. I am not sure when she got pregnant because she was able tonroam in and out freely. When she started showing I stopped letting her go outside. He babies have been moving I have been able to see and feel them for about 10 days now.

If you could see the kittens moving 10 days ago, you have 4 - 11 days to go.  She may go longer than 11 days but that's the general range.

It sounds like she's getting close. Have you set up nest options for her?

Please make sure she stays totally inside until the kittens are 8 weeks old. At that point, they will not be so vulnerable because they can be vaccinated and will be weaned. Mom can also be spayed at that point. Moms can get pregnant again within a week of delivery, as well as bring parasites and illness back up their kittens. There is also the risk that mom doesn't come back if she goes out.

Yes I have boxes set up for her everywhere. And we have a empty bedroom and it has a good size closet so the closet is lined with paper and old clothes as well. She got in one of the boxes earlier and took a nap then got out and went bk in and started scratching in it and got bk out again. She will go one place and take a nap then go to another and take a nap. And since yesterday she has tried getting into the cabinets and under my couch. No other signs yet tho. And she will not be going bk outside until she gets spayed. I dnt want her having more kittens.
