The kittens should have come by now. Get your cat to an emergency vet asap. Not only is she in distress... but so are the kittens. Both her life and the kittens lives hang in the balance. Hurry!
And when this is all over and everyone is ok. Spay the momcat so she doesn't add to the pet population. Have the kittens spayed and neutered as well at 2 pounds.

Well, this could be normal...it depends, see before she gives birth, she could just be in pain...most moms (b4 they give birth) Go through pain at some point you know? And it could go on until she has the kittens! If you still need more help...call the vet...and just ask, you prolly won't need an appointment, just ask!!

Cats can stop the labor process if their not comfortible! so if they don't want you in there, you should leave and let her do it...if she stops the process for too long, all the kittens will die!

Definitely line a box with blankets, place her gently in and get her to the vet! After she has this litter, spay her.

Try giving her a bowl of water. Maybe phone her vet.

It doesn't sound like you were really prepared for this.
Here are a couple of informative sites:
