guppy giving birth NOW !!!

[justicerulesok]

hi,

I've never had fish before so can someone let me know if this is normal please?

My pregnant (51 days) guppy has a big red lump sticking out underneath her for over an hour.

is this how they give birth? or is she ill? I thought shed have babies human style.

Thanks for the help.

keep checking on it if u see black dots thoese are eyes put her in a hospital tank untill she gives birth or waht ever.

the lump got bigger - about the size of my little fingernail & after about 3 hours she died.

i have no idea what this was - my patner thought she was giving birth & it was her water about to brake, but it looked like her womb falling out.

v. sad.

thanks for the help anyway
