You are welcome, I was glad to help you! Queens can go into heat after kittens, but I would not mate Nancy. She needs to focus on her kittens. Keep all intact males away from her, and keep her in her nesting area with her kittens. She should not be mated again until her kittens are weaned, around five to six weeks of age. Best of luck.
