What kind of anesthesia did your vet use? Was it gas? If a Yorkie has problems with a quality type of anesthesia, they should be tested for liver shunt.
If she got around your unneutered male at all, she could be pregnant.
If she is having a false pregnancy, the hormone that is telling her body to produce milk can also tell her body to deliver the pups. So she may strain and push like she is delivering. It's not very common though.
She may not even need surgery if she has MVD (small shunting throughout the liver) but spaying is pretty important if it is possilbe to do safely. I would really hope she is not pregnant if she has a shunt or MVD because it can be passed on.
