You bred your dog. So yes, you ARE a BREEDER.
I am sorry, but the situation you have put her in to fulfill your own desires is less than ideal. Preparing yourself to breed your dog ETHICALLY and SAFELY is something you need to research and educate yourself on way in advance, not something you pick up on as you go. A bit late to be trying to figure this out now, a little over a week before she is due!
Your best option at this point is to find and experienced breeder to mentor you through her whelp and to be there to assist you, or even your vet. You are going to be hard pressed to learn everything you need to know in such a short amount of time. Questions and answers via internet forum are not enough.
