It doesnt sound like eclampsia, throwing up is not uncommon right before or after whelping. Signs of eclampsia is heavy panting, shaking, wobble walk, soon unable to stand. Keep a close eye on mom though, have you taken her temp? that should be done regular for the first three days after whelping making sure there is no infection.

I hope this helps please let us know how she is doing

Shes not weak or shaking etc. Shes more excited. She's waging her tail and eating alot. She's been good so far. She's been moving the pups around he area to suit her a bit but nothing extreme or dangerous.
The vomiting is worrying me more than anythign else really. I suppose theres a chance the pup was latched when she vomited and moved and became unlatched and ended up on the floor, which could have been just before i walked in, but i'd rather not assume that incase its something more serious.

I'l keep you updated.

thank you all
