Yeah, I read that "Don't leave me alone for one second," message in her look too.  Ask my aching back.  I've been sleeping on the floor for the last week because I don't want her jumping off of the bed at night.  I've also been doctoring her food with chicken broth and a little egg--when she's finished having puppies and nursing and she goes back on the regular maintenance food is when she'll probably REALLY feel picked on.
