I wouldn't be surprised if they come in the next 24 hours.
I've cancelled my plans to go out tomorrow as we would be out of the house from around 10am until maybe about 3pm or later if we decided to have dinner out with the children. My hubby is going to take the kids out for a few hours instead so if she hasn't had the kittens by then at least it will only be me at home with her. She's laying in the middle of the front room and keeps doing big sighs

I've hardly been out the house the past 2 days because I'm so worried about her being on her own especially when she cries and follows me everywhere lately. Couldn't imagine her being left in on her own if she were going through labour especially as it's her first time. My hubby is more a dog lover so he isn't as worried as me but he does understand that she's another one of my babies, just a furry one lol.

I'm quite worried now. She's just been sick. Wasn't much just a tiny bit of her food but she's never ever sick x

I think her body is just clearing out before delivery. She's probably having contractions.

I'm just really worried incase something is wrong and that's why she's like this. She's never been sick of dirtied the house. She always uses her tray. I've not changed her food and she's not ate anything she shouldn't have so I'm just worried that she's doing that. She seems fine now, she's sitting looking out the window.

Loose stools are totally normal before a birth. If it would make you feel better, call your vet. This sounds normal to me though.

Thank you. I will see how she is over the next hour and if she is sick or has loose stools again I will give them a call

How is she doing? It sounds like pre-labor, hormonal, pregnancy-induced sickness. It probably came over her so fast she had no time to get to her litter box. It's common for pregnant cats to have diarrhea before labor.

She keeps scraping/digging type thing on my wooden flooring in the middle of the front room. No more sickness or loose stools though and I managed to get her to have a drink of some water.

That's good. Have you noticed any contractions in her belly?

I noticed some tightening earlier but nothing since.
