    So I saved these stray kittens that are 8 weeks old took them to the vet and dewormed them as they were found in my trash and full of fleas. My babies now have a pot belly but there still playing pooping and eating has anyone ever experienced this with there kitten and how long does  it take for there bellies to go down?. Should I be worried?.

Sometimes they require a second deworming.  Also, kitty tummies are a bit round if they are healthy.  Check with the vet and get a stool sample to check for worms.  Make sure they've been wormed for tapeworms as well.  That isn't covered in the regular dewormers.  Otherwise, they're probably just healthy.
