Mom seems to be leaving the box and going to lie down far from the kittens more frequently now - I have been coaxing her back to the box and giving her a bellyrub to encourage her to lie down and let them nurse, but on her own she doesn't seem to respond when they start to cry. Is it normal for Mom to take a break now and then and go sleep elsewhere? Should she be coming back when the babies cry?
