It's highly likely. Has she been around unneutered males? How old is she?

You can have her spayed now and it will end the pregnancy.

She's two years and 9 months old, and yes she's been around unneutered male on June, 13.
I've been actually trying to get her pregnant but It took too long I almost lost hope

I can take care of more babies and I want more pets.
So now there's a big change that she's pregnant?

Did you consider adoption?

The shelters are full of tiny kittens needing homes. They often get euthanized when no one wants them.

It does look like she may be pregnant.  

Do you plan to keep all of these kittens?  Where did you get the male cat?

What pedigree is she?  Do you plan to use the breeder you got her from as a mentor?

She's lovely. 

Persians can have high-risk deliveries because of the shape of their heads.  You will definitely want to have a vet that you trust on speed dial.  If you see her pushing for more than a half hour without results, you will want to rush her in.  I would also think that you should not mate her again because of her age.  By the time it would be appropriate for her to have another litter she will be at the upper age range for mating.

During the pregnancy and until the kittens are weaned, mom should stay entirely inside.  She should have a high-quality kitten dry food at all times, and kitten wet food meals several times a day.
