If the bitch is looking really thin, is this because she wasn't on 6-7 meals a day? The body has to draw on all its reserves, and your bitch has been working really, really hard.
Make sure that mum is getting lots of a quality puppy food, and plenty of protein too. Has she gotten thin because she wouldn't eat? If she is only on a dry feed, that could be your answer. Sore mouths from cleaning puppies is so difficult for them. Ensure that she is given plenty of wet feed. A bowl of Nutrilac may be welcome.
Pups will be eating well on their own now but she may well want to spend time with them, playing and teaching them their manners. I let bitches choose when they want to be with pups. Her milk will be tailing off soon, let it happen naturally unless you suspect a problem - in which case a vet visit would be sensible.
Keep your girl on high nutrition and puppy food for a couple of months. Her coat will appreciate it too at this stage.
