Somewhere out of the way no drafts where no other pets will go away from

human traffic.  I placed a stack of doggie pee pee pads on top of her bedding so during delivery I just took one away after every birth...easy clean. Inexpensive at dollar store.  Most cats will try for the under the bed but it's hard for you to access monitor hands on.  Chopping down a box adding bedding placing in different spots helping her find the right  'spot' helps. 
  beside the bed with blanket draped over a little as curtain usually works after birth.  Lots of info on the links mentioned :)

Kitten food, wet and dry.  it has more nutrients and fat than adult food and she will pass it on to the kittens growing in her womb.

Don't change her food all at once she will get diarrhea.  For the dry mix a little of the new food in with the old, gradually increasing the amount of the new food.  With the wet I've heard it isn't a big deal switching but I have also heard that should be done gradually as well.
