Cat and her first heat cycle

Hi! Not sure if anyone can help me out but i do have a few questions!

So my cat who is 9 months old went into heat about a week ago. I could tell it was really hard on her. She didnt want to be bothered. We also got a new kitten at the time and she stayed away. Anyways, her heat cycle ended two days ago. She isn’t acting like herself. She is very distant and sleeping A LOT. She sleeps ALL day. My other kitten does too but I think its because she wants to be like her sister. She doesn’t want to play even though she seems interested. Shes also been burping? she makes a weird saliva sounding noise like shes gonna throw up, but she doesn’t. She also hasn’t meowed. She purrs, but they’re scratchy purrs. I think it may be because of her yowling during her heat. We are getting her spayed in February (only apt available). She used to love going on top of her cat tree to sleep, but she doesn’t anymore. She will come onto my chest for snuggles every once in a while. We don’t have the money right now to take her to get checked by the vet. I think she is okay.

Can anyone help? Or offer any advice or insight?
