Platy Urgent Help

[Harlequins]

My mickey mouse platy started giving birth in the tank so i caught her and put her in the breeding trap,she had 2 in there and i've noticed for the past hour she has a huge red lump near her anus, i'm not sure if its unborn fry or her inners coming out,she is still giving birth and had 18 at the moment.

Any ideas what i can do or what it is?
here's a pic i took although looks alot bigger now

It could be a number of things.
Hows the fish now.

She still seems herself apart from the growing mass of what looks like embryos?, she is still dropping fry 20 plus at the moment,a few look dead has they're lying on their side.
This is her 2nd drop since i've had her, her first batch of 21 are all fine and growing which was on the 1st sept.

If its dead embryos will they drop off ?

I don't want to put her back in the main tank with her like this just in case the others attack her and my other 2 tanks have platy and cory fry in them.

So the dead embryos are still hanging out.
Gently squeeze her tummy.
Don't squeeze to hard as you can cause damage.

She went a bit skitish when i went near her,some did fall off but she still has some stuck to her,i have transferred her to the other trap for tonight to see if they will drop off tonight.

she has had 40 fry so far,looks like just 1 dead.

Ok. Bless her.
Done well then as I thought it sounded like a disaster.
Let me know how she gets on.

Thanks wilder

She didn't have any more,i noticed the long black poo coming out so i guess she finished.Is this a normal thing of black poo? ,i've noticed all the female platties has this after a drop.

Anyway i have put her back in the main tank and there's just one small ball stuck to her,hopefully it will drop off. i will keep an eye on her

Thanks for the up date.
Good Luck.
