Supplemental puppy feedings

Question
My sweet little Boston girl (Domino) gave birth to 8 beautiful healthy puppies( her first litter) on 12/18.  We were not expecting 8! I would like to know if I should help mom out with the feedings?  She is not big enough to feed all 8 at once.  She looks to be rotating them for feedings. LOL  I plan to do a weigh in on the pups.  How often should I weigh them? Thank you in advance for your help.
