Then you NEED to feed the puppies yourself. NOT water either, you need puppy replacement milk. Newborn puppies do not drink water. Newborn puppies do nothing but suckle till they ar 4-5 weeks. My dogs pups are 4 weeks old and they are JUST starting to be interested in water and puppy milk soaked kibble. Go get puppy replacement milk from a pet store, petco and petsmart will have it.
