Still on Baby Watch


I'm still on babywatch, still feel babies kicking, have a feeling Coco might keep me up tonight, as she was very vocal all afternoon at work and on the ride home.

But right now she is curled up on my bed in a sleeping bag with Disco, Brighton and Kiki. When I go to bed tonight, I will shoo everyone else out of the bedroom so I can just have her to worry about, and I'll wake every couple of hours to check on her.

Once she goes into labor, if she has 4 kittens, probably the shortest time I'll be awake is 2 hours...but say she starts at 2am, I'll be up the rest of the night. Luckily, I had an extra day off and a 4 day weekend and got some good rest, knowing I'd need it.

Ayla, Iza and Marley (and Sparkle, too) said I probably know all about 'birthin' babies and that it might be good if I told everyone how I prepare for the arrival of kittens.

I'll work on that this week, it'll be fun and educational!

  3. Good luck tonight! When my true mom took me and my pregnant cat mom in, it took about 24 hours for my cat mom to deliver three babies. I guess that third one just wasn't that eager to appear!
