Answer 1

I'd take her to the vet.

She quite an age to be pregnant (for the 1st time?) so I would want to check that out anyway.

If the hair loss is around her back end and her belly, it could just be that shes getting ready for the kittens - it'll be less mess for her to clean up if she has no fur, and the kittens can find the teats easier.

I would also suggest having her spayed after giving birth, then you won't have lots more kittens to find homes for.

I hope everything goes alright.

Stress, or you are not feeding her the right food...
