Have you taken her to the vet, if not, do so ASAP.

Do you know an experienced breeder of small breed dogs that can help you with the whelping? There is so much you need to do to be ready, and a lot that can go wrong with small dogs in this circumstance. Many need help with the whelping, and you need to recognize the warning signs of these potential problems. Way too much to learn on an internet message board.

I recommend either finding a very experienced breeder that is familiar with toy dogs, or letting your vet handle the delivery.

If you are going to attempt it yourself, there is a long list of supplies you need to have on hand, so maybe one of the experienced breeders here (I'm not one of those) will come along and give you a list. You should probably give the list to someone else and send them to pick up the supplies, because at this point your girl shouldn't be left alone. In fact, be prepared to be with her 24/7 for the next few weeks.
