Answer 1

there aren't to many signs I don't think, just show her where the bed is and wait. keep an eye on her but don't hover, it can stress her out. also she is going to have the kittens where ever she chooses, that just the way cats are, you can put her in her bed thing later, don't worry to to much and touching the babies when they are out isn't bad but try to touch them as little as possible and let her do her thing.
