Meet Shia my pregnant baby :)

[shiacat]

shes doing so well with first kitten keeps calling to me for help, my pillow is covered in discharge and placenta its 11pm god knows what time ill be able to change my bedsheets, but omg im beeming with pride

 

[shiacat]

second out came really fast before she could even finish her placenta, she got it out the sac and is doing wonderfully, didnt even flinch, black and white

 

[diggerd]

Yay!!! I've been at work so missed what was going on!

So happy for you that she has had them before you were away!

Ohhh they look so dinky x

 

[shiacat]

black adn white is a lot smaller, i feel more in there but think shes resting for a moment, they are struggling to find her nipple and keep going under her elbow so she cant lay down lol, she seems scared to pick them up 

 

[eck1kaylie]

If she doesn't object, you could try helping them get to her nipples to nurse.

 

[shiacat]

I have been she seems fine with it but they still cant find them lol

 

[Sarthur2]

They will find the nipples. There are 2 kittens now? Did you shave her belly?

 

[shiacat]

erm so question, when can i move then to change my sheets and go to bed and how do i go about it?

4 babies so far btw dont know if i can feel another but shias exhausted doesnt even have energy to clean last 2 placentas

 

[shiacat]

the vet shaved her belly for her scan

 

[Sarthur2]

Did she bite off the placentas from the cords? If so, just remove and dispose of them. You'll need to put the babies in a nest by your bed, and mom should follow. No sudden movements. Then change your bed. Does mom have food and water nearby?

 

[shiacat]

she did but shes laid on top of the placenta so was so tired shes left the last placenta at her bum its oozing blood everywhere :/

she has food and water near by, mylos trying to break the door down to get in -_-

shall i do it now?

 

[shiacat]

worried last kitten might still be attached, but i cant see its either still attached or its cord is stuck between other kittens so cant move it

 

[Sarthur2]

You need to pinch these cords free from each other and the kittens. They do not need to get tangled up. It's dangerous!

 

[Sarthur2]

If there's still blood you need to tie off each cord with dental floss about an inch from each kitten's naval. Let me know all of this goes okay.

 

[shiacat]

2 are still attached to placenta i dont know what to do

 

[shiacat]

i have no dental cord dont even know where to get that in uk, is there anythign else i can use?

 

[Sarthur2]

Use thread. Pinch the cord between your thumb and forefinger to stanch the blood. Tie it with thread about an inch from the naval. Or tie it first and then cut it. They need to be detached from their placentas, and you need to throw away the placentas.

 

[shiacat]

omg i dont have thread! im panicing now cos they are knotting, im trying to get her to do it but she wont

 

[Sarthur2]

Ok. Just pinch the cord away from the placenta. Just make sure there's no blood still coming from the cord that is still attached to baby. Ok?

 

[Sarthur2]

How's it going? Is everything separated now?
