Is this her first litter? She may be in labor several hours, this could be an all nighter for you, do you know how many pups she is expecting? Our Rott just had pups, we had a whelping box with plenty of newspapers, that way you could just pick up and throw away, make sure there is plenty of blankets for her to lay on, also after the pups are born, be sure they stay warm, we put a heating pad under a blanket and laid them on it, (while the mom is still having more) be prepared to help her in case she is having one after another, she may need help getting the sac off and getting the baby to breathe and clean it, normally she will do all of this but in case she is having them quick be prepared, she will also eat the cord off the pup, if you need to clean them, or take the sac off, take the sac off there faces as quick as possible, and take a towel and rub them virgously to get them breathing on their own, also you may need to turn over to get them to breathe on their own. You will want to take the pups to the vet within 2 days to get declaws removed and tails done. Good luck. (let me know how many she has and how she does)

Yo should have already figured out where you wnat her to have her pups. get her in that area and just keep an eye on her.
She will do a lot of digging, panting and moving around.
It's basically impossible to make commpfortable as labor is painful.
Good luck and if yo think there is a problem get her to the vets.
Good luck

Just be with her, let her know that you are there.. Can also put her leash on, and take her for a walk around the yard.. Seems to help take their mind off it.. Don't take her off the leash tho, cause she'll try her best to get into a very inappropriate spot for puppy whelping!

Use a high pitched voice when talking and pet him/her...continue to comfort it, make it feel safe and secure.

Just stay with her and have clean cool water for her when she wants it. Thats it. Talk to her and tell her how good she is. Your being there is the best thing for her.
