Marble and her pregnancy: Advice is appreciated.

[mageris]

I know there are at least two that i can feel. I'm fine with her litter being small or big since i stay home, i would be able to devote as much time needed with her and the kittens when they're here. Although we have already decided we are keeping two from this litter so if it's only two, it works out perfectly.

It's great you have a plan and can stay home with her and the kittens .

 

[mageris]

Update: okay so i went to check on her and she's like breathing fast and her sides are twitching like crazy. Is that the tummy ripples you were referring to?

 

[handsome kitty]

Can you stay in the room with her?

 

[mageris]

I could. She's acting fine. So maybe I'll just move my phone and go sit next to her for awhile. She doesn't seem bothered by my company at all.

 

[Sarthur2]

Yes, she is having contractions. She is in labor.

 

[mageris]

Huzzah we're finally getting somewhere

 

[Sarthur2]

Stage one labor can last for hours, just so you know. She's done this before, so hers could go faster, but you never know.

Marble is so pretty! Her belly looks like my Indipoo's.

I'm just glad i see something different happening now. Although me being out here, She keeps trying to lay in my lap and she won't sit still for long. I may leave her be, and check on her hourly since my bedroom is right next to the living room.

 

[mageris]

Thank you,she's a very special kitty.i wonder what the babes Will look like.

 

[Sarthur2]

My cat wanted to be on top of me when she was laboring. Do what is most comfortable. Will she lay next to you?

 

[hteft]

Yayy sounds like you will have babies soon!

 

[mageris]

For a few minutes but then she goes Back to her nest

 

[Sarthur2]

It's good she's using her nest!

 

[mageris]

Oh yeah, she loves it.rolling around purring like a motorcycle and kicking her feet on the wall. I've been calling her Thumper cuz of it lol

 

[mageris]

Update:I have discovered she's now lactating.was curious when that would start.

 

[Sarthur2]

Another sign she is getting very close!

 

[mageris]

I Had a gut feeling it for a week that it might be the 13th of August. I wasnt sure why but I'm now even more sure it is the case.

My boyfriend just told me the last litter was actually 3 and they were each born an hour apart. Is that fine if it were to happen again?
