Every cats different, it can be hours. My girl went from no contractions but acting funny and liquid tinged with red coming out, to full labor contractions in 3 hours.

I've heard others on here that take longer than that. She had all 4 of her kittens in about 50-60 minutes.

Thanks and we are very proud of her
. But we had such hardships the first time I don't know what would have happened if things went wrong again...

I understand being scared and concerned. I hope everything goes well.

If you took out the c-section in your description that is almost exactly what happened to us. She had 5 kittens. The first 2 were small and weak. I took them to the vet and they died. They gave her oxytocin and she delivered the last 3 (the last one was deformed and stillborn). One girl I nursed hourly through the night just to find her not alive at a morning feeding. They were to weak and small to nurse. I couldn't imagine falling in love for 4 days to lose one.

The good thing is second litters do tend to be a bit better.... Heres hoping for everythign to work out!

Yes I know what you mean. I know the devastation. The weekend after the loss I was supposed to pick up my wedding dress. It was 2 hours there and 2 hours back. I decided I should keep to my plans because I hurt so bad and needed something good to happen. I was planning on going by myself and out of the blue my dad offered to go with me. It meant a lot even though we barely talked. I just couldn't bring myself to say anything unless I would cry. It took a long time to recover.

I found wtih the birth of this litter some of those thoughts had come back. I just remember seeing the baby girl yawn (the one that didn't make it through the night) and that has stuck frozen in my memory. This litter is helping me bring closure though.
