ANSWER: Hi
All the things you describe are normal behaviors for a cat in labor. Try not to worry, mother nature will look after things.

the only time you may need to get involved is if your cat is pushing for hours and nothing is happening , or your cat seems to be in distress, or if a kittens gets stuck. In which case a vet needs to see her. However these things are very rare.

Hope all is well by now

QUESTION: well What stage she might be in?
and when will she deliver?

Answer
Sounds like the early stage. Labor can take hours and if she has more than one kitten there may be several hours between each kitten.
