Love Timeline For New Born Feeding

muffie had 5 puppies 2 weeks ago. she and kirby are both 7lbs. for the last two weeks muffie was feeding the puppies well but in the last two days, she will stay there for about 5 minutes then walk away. she will go at least every hour to do this. i have tried to keep her down but she is determined to quit feeding. how do i know if the puppies are getting enough to eat? i have tried to weigh them but they are all over the place, i can't keep them still enough to weigh them.
is there a puppy chart timeline anyone knows of so i can see how much they should be getting fed by mom?
thanks so much
lisa
ps...i worry since she had 5 puppies, she may not have enough milk since they are getting so big.
fyi, they were approx 6 oz when they were born
