Question Making sure pregnant yorkie is ready for nursing

Last time my dog had puppies she didn't want to nurse them, and I'm not even sure she really had milk. (We squeezed the nipples and nothing came out).
I'm looking for any advice to help her have milk (what can we do nutritionally??), and secondly I am looking for any tips on how to get her to nurse when the puppies are born. Do I let the puppies crawl up to her and start nursing? What if she nips at them? Any advice on this process is appreciated!!!
My dog is not that sociable and was scared/confused by her puppies last time. I want to help her as much as I can if this is a problem this time again.
Thank you!!!!
