Yes, that is what it is. She will be going into labor soon if she hasn't already. Hopefully, you have a nest set up for her to use. [emoji]128522[/emoji]

Yes she has a box in my kitchen ( I live in a camper) and she has a sheet inder my bed its a futon so very easy to move. She is in the kitchen she ate about 5 prices of food and now she is cleaning herself

 

[Sarthur2]

That's good! Keep us posted.

 

[kaylynn pryber]

She is now back under my bed cleaning herself everywhere this is my first cat labor can I expect her to have the kittens tonight

 

[Sarthur2]

Not necessarily. If stage one labor has started, it can last up to 24 hours. Sometimes the mucus plug is lost before labor actually begins, so it could even be a couple of days. Hard to say. When you see ripples in her belly she is having contractions. It won't be long though!

 

[kaylynn pryber]

Ok thank u for ur help I am so excited I can't wait to see the babies

 

[Sarthur2]

It is exciting! [emoji]128522[/emoji]

This is my momma cat her name is chleo she gets up about every ten mins and moves around I'm guessing this is the restlessness

 

[Sarthur2]

True, and every cat is different too! I speak from my own personal experience. The constant moving around and restlessness tells me she is most likely in stage one labor and having contractions. They get stronger, closer together, and more painful, until they begin pushing. Again, it can take hours. Tummy rubs help if she'll let you.

 

[kaylynn pryber]

Oh yes she loves tummy rubs but she wants me to do it while she is under my bed or she runs and hides to the other side of the bed it just depends on what her old is at the time she is back up eating again now but she don't eat but a few pieces at a time

 

[kaylynn pryber]

I think she had a small contraction about 5 mins ago I seen a kitten move and then she tensed up and the skin on her spin done some kind of jerking thing is this a contraction or just from the kitten move

 

[Sarthur2]

It was probably a contraction.

 

[kaylynn pryber]

Do u know about how far apart contractions r at this stage

 

[Sarthur2]

No, I would not know. You'd have to mark the time between each contraction to know.

 

[kaylynn pryber]

I think she just had another one looked just like the one before if it is contractions their about 15 to 20 mins apart

 

[Sarthur2]

Okay, that's why it can take hours. I do believe it's contractions.

 

[kaylynn pryber]

With the contractions will she still push out more of the mucus plug I just wiped her and their was a lot more than their was now
