How do you tell if there are more kittens to be born?

The mother will still show signs of labor. She will still have contractions if labor is progressing-- if it stops there is a problem. If you gently feel her belly, you may be able to feel the babies. If a kitten is partway out the birth canal but doesn't come out, immediately take mother and all born kittens to a vet or the mom could die.
