What to do with newborn rejected kittens?
First and foremost...keep them warm! Get them to a vet or a resuce that handles rejected neonate kittens. If you are going to bottle raise them yourself...Get some KMR (kitten milk replacement) and get ready for feeding every 2 hours and learn how to stimulate them to go to the bathroom after every feeding.

How long does it take for a female cat to give birth?
As long as needed for all the newborn kittens to be born. A cat will usually know when she is done birthing because by that time, she will have settled down and have started the feeding process.Our cat gave birth to 2 kittens at 9pm in the evening, then had a 12 hr gap between them and the next 2 kittens which were delivered at 9am the following morning. She was feeding the original 2 kittens through the night and seemed relaxed. Guess the other 2 were just not ready!Cats usually take 4 - 6 hours to deliver her entire litter though if labor persists over 7 hours they should see a veterinarian.
Why would your cat stop feeding the kittens after 3 days?
Not all cats are good Moms, or, she may not have enough milk, or occluded nipples. Wash her nipples with a warm, damp wascloth to be sure there is no crusty or gooey stuf on her, then give her some brisk belly-rubs to encourage the milk to flow. Then put the kittens on her to nurse. If this doesn't work , you will have to bottle feed the kittens every 2-4 hours. And call the Vet as soon as possible.
