Hey Mel[I named my kitty "Pearl"}and she had 4 babies yesterday. I had to
hand deliver the last 2.She had no idea what was going on.I wasn't sure if
she was pregnant or not but I had a nice wicker basket made up just in
case--naturally she started having them under a chair.I got her and the
first 2 into the basket,we delivered the last 2 and everything was
fine.Then last night she moved them way back into a kneehole space next to
my desk.Then she promptly went berserk, wandering through the house
yowling her head off. I tried to get to my pc and she tore the hell out of
my foot.How quickly they forget, guess she thinks I have turned into a tom
cat now.This morning she won't eat. I have dry food, canned food, milk and
water. She keeps trying to bury it.I think she expects me to serve up a
platter of broiled mouse chops.

Get her to a vet immediately.

That's not normal behavior for the queen. I've only seen it when the
cat was in pain...delivery not complete or after a C section.  She
could have a kitten stuck in the birth canal. If so, it will kill her
and you will have bottle babies to raise.

Now it could be a psychosis and the vet might want to give her some
calming drugs, but, based on the fact that she's howling and not
eating, I wouldn't wait.

Call your vet.
