Help needed

[Sarthur2]

I thought you had an ultrasound 3 days ago. Did the vet not tell you when to expect the kittens following the test?

 

[myleia]

Sarthur2 please help me. Now I was peting her above tail and the brown discharge with no smell came out of her vagina. What is that? I tought prelabor discarge should be clear or a bit bloody

She is very very calmed entire day and she slept alot

 

[Sarthur2]

The discharge sounds normal for now.

 

[myleia]

Does this mean she is due or?

 

[Sarthur2]

When did the vet say she was due based on her ultrasound?

I know she was already pregnant when you got her.

Usually discharge preceeds labor by up to a few days.

 

[myleia]

He only told me that kittens were alright and healthy and I forgot to ask about the due date. :/ she is searching all possible ways to get into my bedroom even tough she learned before that this isn't allowed, but now it seems like she is neglecting it. Nesting I guess. I provided her with big box with a 7x6 inches but she is not very interested. All she does entirw days is sleep and eat. And now this discharge. So we should expect kittens in few days?

 

[Sarthur2]

Can you let her nest in your bedroom since that is where she wants to be?

Just continue to watch for signs and keep us posted.

 

[myleia]

What signs should I watch for?

 

[Sarthur2]

Restlessness, meowing, eating less, pacing, contractions, more discharge.

Here is a little reading for you so you will be more informed for the birth.  BTW if she cannot reach her but to clean it you can put some diaper ointment on it to soothe the irritation.  I believe olive oil may also help but some one said it hurts on irritated skin.

You were right, Leia is one of those cats that show no signs of milk until giving birth
