My momma cat is in labor I think right now. Her tummy is getting hard and when it does she swishes her tail and changes position. Last time I could see/feel contractions higher on her belly, this time it's way lower more towards the underside. Maybe im just overexcited and think she's in labor-im not as sure this time as I was last time. Last time she really was uncomfortable and it was obvious. Ok i'll keep you all updated!! yea, yea kittens on the way!

now she's just snoozing.....*sigh* it might be a false alarm or very early labor. I'll keep updating though.

pictures for sure.
It seems like she'll go awhile where she'll snooze during contractions and then there is periods where she is uncomfortable with each contraction. Is this normal?
I remember with the last litter that she was uncomfortable the whole time.....it's throwing me off because it is different this time.

thanks guys!
I am a little concerned-I remember last time with each contraction her tummy rose up and formed a oval like shape. Now on one side with each contraction there is a sideways V shape rising up.....why would her uterus be shaped like a sideways "v" ?? I hope these's nothing wrong. The anxiety is overwelming. I love this but I hate it too.

yeah it's getting close. She's in obvious pain and she went into he box and meowed but then she left the box. It should be by tonight (hopefully). My hubby is not happy about the prospect of me staying up all night but *oh well!*
