Could have been a malformed fry or something.

all 2 of them (that's all we KNOW she had for sure)??? The first one looked fine to me... he swam straight and was alert... so I do not know what makes them 'malformed'

I mean the red squirt... maybe it's the fish equivalent of ambiotic fluid, I have no idea. I didn't get to watch my platy have her babies, she did it very early in the morning (I think they prefer this time, when nobody is around and in the wild, gives their fry a head start on hiding from predators).

Have not seen anymore labor progressions since the fulid. We also got a breeding thing you set in the tank and it had slots for the fry to go in. I got it in hopes so that they will not eat their young this time. Has anyone had this compaired to the breeding ent you set on the side of the tank? What do you think might work better? The new plastic one hold two moms but is smaller.
