Question Pregnant mama won't eat puppyfood

Ok, so this is my (and my little mama-to-be's) first time having puppies. I've read everywhere and my vet has told me to feed her puppy food so she will gain proper weight and the puppies will get the nutrients they need and what not. Well, I have one picky girl on my hands and I don't know what to do * btw, she is one month pregnant today and has not gained any weight* We have fed her three different types of puppy food trying to find the one she likes. She started off with Science Diet until we realized that it was actually crap (she didn't like it anyway). Then we switched her to Wellness Super5 Mix puppy. She only eats a few pieces and has had no interest since. Finally, Blue Buffalo was our choice, and same thing, no interest whatsoever. I know she has an appetite because she wants to eat her regular food (Wellness Core) and she also tries to eat my boyfriend's brother's dog's food. I'm not sure how to get her to eat puppy food or what other options I have so her and the puppies will get what they need. I am going to call our vet tomorrow, but was just wanted some thoughts from some experienced yorkie parents out there. Thanks for any advice that is offered.
