My dog Echo just had puppies 1 week ago, and is spotting blood and also has slime discharge.. normal?

Question

she is feeding her puppies just fine, drinking plenty enough water and eating about 5 cups of food a day.. Im just not sure if this is normal, the discharge is like the sac that the pups were in, she is still energetic and lively wanting to play when shes not taking care of the babies. the color of her blood is not dark and its a little watery.. i know that with human women that just have babies .. they bleed up to around 2 weeks after giving birth.. so should i not be worried about this? Thank You.
