If she doesn't need a C-section, she'll get spayed before her next heat cycle.

My old Yorkie Jojo who died, managed to have five litters before she got spayed. She was on the larger side almost 7lbs. Bella is petite, weighing 5 1/6lbs before she got pregnant.
P.S. This past litter was Lexie's third. Her first litter 6 healthy puppies, her 2nd litter, 6 healthy puppies, and then 7. Some Moms just have larger litters
