There's no need to change her diet at this time, assuming you're feeding her a good food.
If I'm reading this right, she is about 2 weeks along. This is about the time many experience morning sickness. She may get picky and may even throw up. This should pass. Try to keep her on her food. Maybe add some canned food to to make it more appetizing it if you're not doing so already.
It's the last 3 weeks or so that the pups do most of their growing. That's when you need to up Mom's intake to about 1 1/2 to 2 times normal. I usually feed a little beef liver at this time. It's very nutrient dense and I feel it helps Mom from getting depleted. She is, after all, building puppies and that takes a LOT!
The REAL pickiness usually comes after delivery.
