How do you mean 'attacking herself' - it doesn't sound right to me - see if you can ring a vet and talk to them over the phone (doesn't cost) and ask their opinion.
she was biting her belly and sides. she has settled now and is grooming herself excessively. Vet has said she prob in a bit of pain but dont know how to deal with it, maybe first stage to keep an eye on her. she seems happy enough in herself
Well she laid next to me all night asleep. Nothing as yet, and this morning she seems fine and has eaten and drunk loads!!! You can really see her spine sticking out now where her belly hanging so low.
The Vet believes the kittens were getting into position and it may have felt strange for her, maybe even a little bit painful. Suppose since she is new to this then she isn't going to understand whats going on. Bless her.x

I have no idea, must be soon. I noticed her nipples getting pinker and bigger in the middle of May. She has her milk in and low in her belly, but no other signs.. I don't want to take her temp because I have never done it before so don't want to hurt her.
A pic I just took with the web cam, he not that much of a poser lol, will try and get a better one of him

aww she looks lovely...well selecta does seem calm at the moment, but shes quite vocal during the night and today...seems very restless..she has been snooping around in my bedroom and scratching at the carpet!!...
If she has had that reaction to pain before they are born, I would watch her when she is in labour, I have heard of cats attacking their kittens when they come out, as they just see them as a source of pain. Homeopathic remedy Chamomila is good for easing pain, but anything you order online probably is not going to arrive in time.

She has really settled today, I think she is quite relaxed. I will be with her (not leaving her side!!) when it happens to reassure her, and if it comes to that then deal with it (fingers crossed it doesnt) I have a friend that is bringing round some milk etc (stuff from the vets, ermm cini...I cant think of the name grrrr) that she had when her cat was pregnant.
Touch wood though it doesnt and she will be a really good mummy!!
She is laying on my feet right now and her fur keeps "shuddering" I suppose you could say. But she is fast asleep
