It is a bit unusual for a momma to wean the pups that young. How many pups is she nursing? Most of my mommas allow the pups to nurse at least 8 weeks or longer. Have you cut the toenails on the pups? If you have not then I suggest you do that. Puppy toenails get really sharp and can really hurt the momma when the pups are nursing.
I feel it is best if the pups are allowed to nurse several times a day. You can grind up some dry puppy food for them to lick on in addition to the mush you are giving them.
If the mommas teats get to full you might want to put a warm compress on them.
