is Luna pregnant!? (multiple photos)

[luna mama]

Luna's water finally broke at 11:15 am and shes habing contractions and purring through them all! No sign of kitties yet. I see the first bubble as she's pushing now but only a little and it goes back in

 

[handsome kitty]

Yay!

 

[Sarthur2]

Kitten should be here momentarily!

 

[luna mama]

She got up and walked to another box in a different room. Still pushing, no kitty yet

 

[luna mama]

Now she's eating..

 

[handsome kitty]

What happened to the bubble?

 

[Sarthur2]

This is strange.

 

[luna mama]

Different box still pushing see bubble still cant see anything insude it, clearish yellowish liquid looks like its slowly coming further and furtyer out. It goes back in when she stops pushing but comes out further when she pushes. Now shes in the chair pushing. Im worried but she doesn't seem too horribly distressed shes not crying , shes had babies before i dont understand

Ok kitten half out. Kitten out and alive! Luna cleaning it up. Kitty nursing and luna eating placenta. She didn't separate the cord fron the placenta, kitten still attached to chord. How far from kitten do i cut it?

 

[handsome kitty]

To cut the cord, use a piece of of clean dental floss.  Tie it about an inch from the kitten on the cord and cut w/ blunt scissors on the side by the placenta.  They do not need to be sterile. Trim the dental floss.  How did the mom eat the placenta and not cut the cord?

Kitten number 2 born

 

[luna mama]

She started to eat the placenta but then stopped. I think its because she started to have the second one. It came out really easy. I'm going to give it a minute because she is tending to both now.

 

[luna mama]

Placenta number one is severed. I didn't realize number two was coming so fast. She is doing this like a champ! No crying at all from mommy

 

[luna mama]

Is it ok for her to eat the placenta off of the chord rather than chewing the chord first?

 

[Sarthur2]

It's fine. Nice job, so far!

Kitty #3 born at 1:44

 

[luna mama]

Mommas taking a rest, two latched on and the third is close to figuring it out. She still gas to severe two chords but she licks on them after a few minutes of rest so im sure she woll after she gets a breather. The third was breach so i think shes releived to be able to rest for few. Im not sure of their will be a 4th but shes taking a nappy on her back and i havent seen an more contractions

 

[Sarthur2]

I'd go ahead and tie off those cords if she hasn't bitten them by now. Sounds like she's exhausted.

 

[luna mama]

Shes got all the placentas gone and all three babies nursing

 

[Sarthur2]

Aww, nice job! How sweet. Pictures when you can please. I know you are relieved and proud!
