I have one baby born. 65 gram girl, but the others haven't come out and that was about a hour and 15 mins ago. Should I be concerned? I can see that she's still cleaning herself and I see the baby kicking.
 
Don't be concerned, it can sometimes take up to three or four hours. Once you see the afterbirth, you'll know that she's done. Of course you'll need to post pictures! ;)

I don't breed so I have no idea, but I thought each kit had it's own placenta? So wouldn't she have the afterbirth after every individual kit born? Or did I just think wrong?
 
Happy to see both babies are healthy and mom is safe. Congratulations.
