I just joined this site looking for a few answers I haven't seen yet on here.
My cat Phoebe is very pregnant. She is a little thing (2 years old). I got my other cat, Darby who is male and got caught up in work that time passed without getting him fixed. Anywho he started acting out when he was about 9 months old, which was January 2017. And I got him fixed January 20, 2017. A few days after he was still restless and would get a hold of pheobe so I separated them until he calmed down. And now she is due any day now based off of calculations. (65 days pregnant)
So to my questions ;
When it comes to her nipples and milk production, is it normal or ok for her back two that are closest to her tail to be the largest? They are huge in comparison to her others but they are still squishy.

Is it normal to only be able to feel one kitten? The kitten is always in the same spot, her left side, sometimes upper stomach but most of the time in her lower left abdomen area. It's been moving around for the last two weeks. But the past few days I've only felt it twice and it's moving slower.

Thank you!

Also this is pictures of Phoebe, it's hard to show her tummy size and all since she is so fluffy

My girl Pheobe is 66 days pregnant by estimation.

She still eats like crazy
I am her person and she is still her normal clingy to me. ( she is a tortoise shell though, so she has her normal sassy spells)
She has been nesting, kinda. I have an empty spare bedroom for her that has 4 nesting boxes in different areas and she takes a liking to them sometimes. I keep her in there at night and sleep with her or check on her and in the daytime I let her be with me in the house.
I haven't felt her kittens move as much as they normally do in 3 days now. I have felt maybe two kicks since then.
Phoebe has big back nipples and the rest are growing but I can feel the milk sack underneath the back two.
I can see her back starting to have a slope in it and I can feel her hip bones at the top now, sinking in a little.
She always keeps her tail to her side

I'm just wondering if my estimation of her due date is a little off and if I should be worried about her not being in labor yet

It sounds like she is getting very close. It could be any day now. [emoji]128522[/emoji]

My girls water broke and she started leaking this pinkish type fluid but she calmed down and ate and now she is in her box but has been asleep ever since. Is she ok? It has been 6 hours since her water broke

That is a picture of what came after her water breaking

She may be in early labor. Things sound normal. Hang in there!
