Pregnant Platie

[Nick Bramley]

im reasonably experienced in keeping live bearers (mainly mollies) but i have one fish that is confusing me slightly, my blue female Platy is pregnant but has now been at the stage of looking like she is going to burst for some time now, at least a couple of weeks.

am i right in saying its usually a month from first signs of showing and then giving birth?

Thanks

Nick
