My white female platy looked ready to burst yesterday morning, so I put her in the breeding tank, but she seemed VERY stressed being alone so I put her back in the main tank deciding I would rather lose the babies then have her get too stressed. Well when I put her back in the main tank I noticed that her gravid spots had dissapeared and her belly had become very red. I had been monitoring her in the birthing tank and I know she never gave birth, but she suddenly didn't look pregnant anymore. But this morning the spots were back and she looks more pregnant then ever. What was going on with her?
 
Perhaps the fry turned around, so you couldn't see their eyes as much. That sometimes happens. Otherwise, as much information as you can give will be helpful. How red was it? Did it look like it was bleeding? What are your water stats?
