My cat just had kittens. Why is she pacing and meowing a lot?

Question

Hi, I'm concerned about my kitty, Buttercup. She just had kittens 3 days ago and keeps leaving the spot where her kitties are to pace around the room. She's also meowing A LOT. When I checked on her, she let out two really long meows. She had two babies and she is five years old, she's also had kittens before. When she laid down with her babies about 15 minutes ago, she was licking her stomach and genitals, which she has been doing all day. Please help, I'm very concerned.

I would be concerned too. I would recommend an examination with a veterinarian. They will likely want to take an x-ray to make sure there are no remaining fetuses in her uterus. This could be life threatening if there is. I hope she improves quickly and can enjoy those babies. Take care.
