If shes about to give birth , there may be a mucas plug coming out first, not always though, once you notice that she is having the babaies just make sure she is not straining to much, like she cant deliver baby, and if she delivers very quickly you may need to help her take the sack of , just get a clean cloth and gently rub on the sack this should bust it and peel it off , once you are done with that just wipe baby clean a little,also you may have to cut the cord also, so get a clean pair of scissors and cut cord about 1 inch from baby and return to momma, she will do the rest, if she seems in distress for a long time (more than a couple of hrs.) or babies are'nt donig well you might want to call a vet.

good luck and happy kittening.
