Yes I meant sicker by her stress. Unfortunetly her little body is very intune with her stress level, if it goes up it will take her longer to get better and it could even set her back. She might be panting because of a low grade fever which is common when they have eclampsia. Are her teets engorged? That will cause her some discomfort.If you can keep the pups away until she is showing signs of improvement that might be what is best. I know how hard it is to see any of them suffer. She can still be a good mommy just not right now. In a few days she might be back to herself and be up to having the puppies around, that will also give her milk time to start drying up. I myself had to take my pup to the vet for mastidis. I have done everything that I could to prevent it, it just wasn't enough for her. I hate hearing the babies cry too.
