Kittens not moving so much?

My cat is due to have her kittens anyday now and I've noticed the last couple of days that the kittens movements have slowed down, they are still moving but not as much. Is this normal?

I really don't know Bellarooo??? Maybe Maisey can advise as her girl just gave birth.

I'd def ring the vet though - just to ask over the phone and see what he says / recommends!!

Our cat had kittens a few years ago and they didn't really move much until they were on the way - at which point it looked like they were all shuffling around getting in line ready to leave.....

Just before she gives birth they usualy slow down with the moving around. She might get realy affectionate as well and not want to be left alone. I cant wait to see pics of them bellaroo.

Would imagine as the kittens get bigger there's less room in the belly to move. May explain it if she's got a few in there.

She is definately more affectionate and I spoke to the vet and said as long as there is movement then not to worry, it sounds like she will be in labour soon!
