Help my rabbit is giving birth to a surprise litter!

I had gone out to clean my rabbit out and had done half when I went to her bed and noticed she had pulled some of her fur out and made a nest. I put my hand in the fur and came across a baby so I withdrew my hand quickly and closed the box and ushered mum back inside her hutch. I've fed and watered her as normal and put in some extra hay but I'm at a loss at what I do now. This was at about 1pm and I've left her to it but I'm concerned I've done some damage by disturbing her. Does anyone please have any experience or advice on what to do now?
Thank you.

This is the last day with the baby rabbits as they are being re-homed tomorrow.

Boopsy I have four female rabbits together with their mum and they're fine together. Occasionally one will chase another around the pen for a bit but there's never been any serious fights and the babies are coming up to a year now.

Make sure you definitely have a baby girl, though. I only ended up with a litter as the "daughter" who came with her mum ended up having more balls than expected! I did get him neutared as soon as I found out but the deed was done. He unfortunately died a few months later.
