One of my fish has just given birth but not sure which one and whether to keep checking for more. Do you think this might be the one that’s pregnant?

yes, it looks a little bigger, but if it has given birth maybe the skinnier one?

Could be, but did you recently feed them? Back when I had platys and mollies it would be hard to tell after recent feedings since they ate so much. Perhaps fast them for two or three days and see which still looks plump.

Well, if you've got another one swimming in there which might be the mother, it will be hard to determine which one of them is the mother of those fry.
