Question whelping

Lots of questions here... Ahia i am sure is pregnant. i have been looking at lots of web sites in order to educate my self as much as possible before the time arrives to deliver. some sites say to let them eat the afterbirth. some say no because it gives them nasty diarreha. what is best (in you all's opinion).
and dewclaws. what is the purpose of clipping this? and .... (oh guish i dont' ever want to go thru this again. my nerves are rattled.)
how long after giving birth can we spay. oh and is it necessary to clamp before we tie the cord? can i do without that expense? those things are expensive. but if i need them i will gladly get them. any thing i need to get me and her thru this.
and since she is so young (just over 10 mo.) how will she be with the puppies? will she try to run with them like she does her little teddy bear? and the teddy bear has a squeekie in the tummy..will she try to squeek the puppy and kill it?
