My yorkie just had her first litter yesterday. She had 4. Two of them are very small or should I say the other 2 ave very big?

Anyways, I want to make sure they are all getting enough to eat. Is there anything I need to do to be certain of this? This morning when I got up they were all wiggling around and climbing over top of each other and doing tinly little whine noises and seemed great but I am so afraid of losing one just because of all the stories I read here. Should I try and feed the babies myself to ensure they are eating? Any positive suggistions please?
