Default new mom day 57 can't get comfortable

I can't seem to figure her out. she is going to have 7 pups per xray done on day 49. her temp at the vet was only 100.0 and she gets so tight and seems to be breathing heavy from time to time. she didn't have a stool yesterday for almost 24 hours it worried me. she is eating puppy food with cottage cheese. I was adding shredded beef roast with her kibble and adding water to make a broth and I warmed it for 40 seconds in the microwave. she liked that 3 times a day for 2 weeks. Now so she can sleep she is laying on her side on the floor all stretched out. she isn't breathing funny any more.
I have whelped bigger dogs before and they weren't mine. this time I can't stop being nervous. she looks like she is caring around a soccer ball. she has to follow me everywhere, up and down the stairs. I have noticed a discharge but it has been a mucous-watery consistency from clear in color to yellowish-light red. she is urinating at least 3-5 times a day, but she has been doing great with holding it and going big time when she would finally go. she heads for under my bed when she sees the thermometer. her temp has been 99.7 for over 2 weeks now. I am so anxious about having these puppies. day 63 won't be till May23.
